Just wanted to say thinks for taking the time to make this video. I couldn’t get my rotors off for the life of me and all the vids I watched they just glossed over it like they come off easy. Then I saw your vid and got to banging and they finally came off. 👍🏻👍🏻
I never knew of that using just a little red lock tight 5:48 I had one of those bolts come off after I did it myself on my Lincoln town car and that's not a good experience. Thanks for showing this.
A little anti seize on the of the hub face and the face of the rotor makes a huge difference getting the tire and rotor off the next time you do the brakes for the people that live in the north where salt is on the roads in the winter, you won't have to pound anything to remove the tire or the rotor. A little anti seize goes a long way.Just don't touch the stud threads.
Hey Ford Boss, I watched your Front and rear brake videos a few times and I think I'm almost ready to do the job on my 2016 F150. Could you tell me the torque specifications for the all caliper bolts (front and rear) Your videos are very helpful, thank you very much
Hey Richard, on these years of F150s, is there a hole in the brake dust cover to install extended hub studs, or does the whole axle need to be removed?
You know how long ago this video was done I don't remember what the hell I did if I didn't there was a reason for it I probably pulled them out seeing how clean they were and put them back in
I've always wondered about pushing pads back in on a abs system. Apparently it's not an issue. Would it be a good idea to crack the bleeder if you were going to bleed the system anyway?
You are correct. Always crack the bleeders. It protects the ABS, and it provides an opportunity to add fresh brake fluid. ABS systems are too expensive to risk. Check the specific torques required for your vehicle as well. Making them “snug” is not sufficient and will lead to premature warping and failure.
So rear drum brakes is like a 2-hour job The rear diff is a half hour to 1 hour job depending on how you're getting the fluid out. If you have a suction machine with a wand it's only a half hour If you have to pull the bolt out of the rear cover and drying it then it's one hour I believe it takes 3 quarts of 75 - 140 Now if you look at the rear end and you see that there's an electrical connector going into the rear end around your differential that means you have an electronic locking rear diff and you should get the 75 140 with (no) friction modifier But if there's no connector going into the rear differential area then you should get the 75-140 (with) friction modifier
@@FordBossMe thanks for the reply...just had the back brakes and rotors and e brake pads done...took him 3 hours at a garage and 3 liters of diff fluod which I thought the whole job took way too long..
@@thenightfly3685 yeah people that aren't used to doing emergency brakes anymore I can see how it would take them longer, I have a specific method where I get it done quick and the more you do them the easier it is but today's vehicles are getting further and further away from disc/drum...you almost don't even see them anymore so guys aren't even really used to doing them so much nowadays
