Great Vidoe again Anthony, love the gravity bleed procedure, will save me falling out with the wife on the next fluid change lol. I replaced calipers and wheel cylinders last year as one caliper piston was seized, couldn't shift it at all. Does anyone have any tips to prevent it happening apart from moving between pad changes? Would a small amount of molycote under the rubber be any use?
I've tried every way over the years. Best method by far is a handheld brake line vacuum pump spend the $180-$200 and get a good one you won't regret it
I have just been reading my Haynes manual and it says start with the right front, left front, right rear & left rear. Its the 120 1kz 05 with the unified ABS modulator. Is this correct as i have always started with the left rear wheel on my other cars. Cheers
Just did my brakes this weekend on my 2013 d4d Fortuner. If I knew about the gravity method it would have been so much easier. Thanks for the information.
Hey Anthony any chance of doing a video for the 150 series using vident scan tool to purge abs accumulator style?? I'm going to do the gravity bleed also but thought seeing as a lot of ppl these days have scan tools it may be a good addition to totally flush system ?? Cheers 🍻
Just changed my LC120 front rotors with these LSI ones a little while back when you first posted about them. My last ones had been machined a few times and I started getting nasty vibrations so was about to buy new ones anyway. New ones so far so good. Perfect fit and quality seems good. And what a bargain as well. Less than $120 for both (thanks for the discount). Probably cheaper to just replace them, rather than get someone to machine them at that price.
I have no idea how you think this system works. I’ve been sitting here for 40 minutes and this stupid brakes are not bleeding at all just a time a little drop and that’s it stopped. Now I’m going to install tubes and pump the brakes like normal people do
