I’ve looked at a dozen of these and this is the best how to break video I have seen! Thank you very much I’m going to be doing exactly this, this weekend!

Great video! Thanks so much for putting this one out. I just checked out your website and noticed you have a warehouse in my hometown of Littleton MA! Very nice!!
Why would someone open the brake fluid line and risk getting air inside if you are not changing the fluid? I wouldn't recommend opening the brake line unless you are doing a flush.
Thanks for a great video and clear instruction! I’ve changed brakes on my old ‘98 TJ, and this next weekend I will do both front and rear on my ‘15 JKU. Just wanted to double check!
1A Auto Parts I’m currently stuck on getting my rotor off (I got my driver side off at the cost of bending my dust shield but that’s another problem) any recommendations for removing a stick rotor? I’ve been hitting it for a few hours now
Great video. Great instructions. Great parts. But I did get a wrong clip in my shipment and had to use one of the old ones. Otherwise. Fantastic. Thank you!

Great video, but you shouldn't ever spray brake cleaner in the direction of/near any rubber or plastic components - it will degrade them. Instead, you should spray brake cleaner on a shop rag and then clean the rotor with the rag.
Love your video! But I cannot find the kit she used. On your website how do I order all the E brake shoes, Springs adjusters. I want to buy that kit she used. Please direct me to it sure would appreciate it!! is there a part number you have or what do I do to get it? I have a 2013 jeep two door Rubicon.
I actually disagree with the comment. The reason why you open the bleeder screw and not just the master cylinder cap is to prevent the brake fluid to go into the ABS system. If there is a dirt, it could damage it.
Yea dont do that...the video is correct , always open the bleed screw and flush the old fluid out rather than putting reverse pressure on system and running fluid back through the ABS valve and into the system...you should be flushing New brake fluid into the system after a change anyway.
honestly lmao. I just removed my 35inchers with minor struggle and I came in to watch this video and I see sue yank that boy off like its a leaf off tree... idk whether to be jealous of her or feel bad about myself😂. prolly both, she's awesome.
Everyone has a different procedure however she didn't bleed them she just released pressure. Some think it matters to remove the old fluid and some believe that it;s fine if it;s not exposed to the atmosphere. Technically you should not use fluid that has already been opened.
This is a good video, but she installed the wrong brake pad the first time. Check out the wear indicator when the pad is installed then look again as the caliper is installed. It goes from the top to the bottom. Still a nice video, but I think some creative editing was done to make it flow so smoothly. But just make sure you get the pads on the correct sides. Take a picture with your phone of the old pads before you take them off. That will help you get things back the correct way.
I found the rear shoes and pads and rotor, but it does not come with the springs and adjuster. How do you get that all in one like she had it in the video? Ready to order just can’t find it.
After watching this, I have come to believe I would not be able to perform this task, as our Jeep is hella rusted. Thank you for very detailed instructions though, maybe next time, on a newer jeep
+Paul & Rene Thanks for checking us out. A lot of rust can certainly make the job difficult, and sometimes it is best to bring it to a garage that has more resources to work on vehicles. That way you can avoid possible headaches that go along with dealing with heavily rusted brakes! 1aauto.com
A1 Auto, was replacing my front pads & rotors on my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited . Both went on easily but I'm having brake issues that I didn't have before . Doesn't happen all the time but when I hit the brakes it feels like the abs is engaging , can feel it right by the brake pedal coming from the engine compartment. I am not getting any abs lights or any traction control lights coming on at all. Even hooked up my obd2 scanner that can diagnose ABS codes and nothing comes up. When I was compressing the caliper piston to put it back on the rotor I didn't have the bleeder screw open or the master cylinder cover open . Should I try opening the bleeder screws and bleed the brakes or could I have done some damage to the abs system when compressing those caliper pistons . Let me know what you think or could do or parts you have to fix this issue. Thank you
+dave M We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
When taking off my rotor my ebrake was completely caked with wet and dry brake dust and muck. Everything is caked in black inside and out, I took paper towels and some brake cleaner but wgat would you suggest to getting it 100% clean l. Thank you
After a rear brake job on the same generation jeep wrangler, one of the sides squeals/creaks when rolling in gear with the brakes applied and just letting the jeep roll forward or backwards extremely slow. It is only one side. All brand new and followed the directions by the book here. What gives? Bad set of pads?
Which one is it? I’m also getting two different answers it’s either 55lbs or 77lbs has anyone figured out why two different torque specs? For the rear caliper bolts?
Brake Shoes; if anyone was wondering about the Parking Brake Shoes not included in this vid, here's the corresponding video from 1A Auto - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pO-s24EZE5A.html
Exactly how HIGH was the camera person during the making of this? Did they need all these epic action shots? Other than that, I will use this video to change my brakes for my 2010 JKW, because....I do NOT want to pay $1692 at the dealership...Great video!
Think how much better the world would be if there were more women like this. Whenever I have the chance to hire young ladies at my shop I do. They come back years later and tell me their doods are intimidated by their skills on the tools. Then I think.. all the real men died off and left a bunch of man bun sissy’s. Perhaps your vids will help. we should all know how stuff works. Then manufacturers could kiss planned obsolescence behind.
