I am in the process of changing my own rotors for the first time ever. I have done brakes before so I had thar down. But I want to THANK YOU SO MUCH for your awesome videos. I feel some kinda proud that I have done this by myself. Well, I needed help with 3 bolts I just couldn't get loose, but that's it.
This is good as a refresher. Did it about seven years ago on a 2008. The shade tree way of putting the seal on is with a flat block of wood and light taps, and I marked the nut bearing and then tapped it loose with a screwdriver and counted how many turns to back it off and then put it back on the same number of turns to the same spot.
Thanks for noticing lol. I get alot of comments about the music....be it Pink Floyd or being it Tupac lol. I just cant work without music. Make sure to subscribe and check out my other videos as well.
I have a 2014 2500. how do you loosen the emergency brake pads so you dont have to struggle taking the rotor off? Sometime theres a little lip on there and its near impossible to get off.
What are the part numbers for the special tools needed to do this work and what are the seal part numbers I went to autozone and couldn't get the proper verbage to get the right part when they search it upm
Good ear! Yeah when I use to film at the shop.....music was always in the background. I find it funny how much people pay attention to that lol. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Make sure to subscribe if you havent already
would you know why a little bit of smoke come out from my rear tires? I changed both rotors and one caliper on LR side. I even bled the air out on the new caliper. Or is a little smoke okay? thanks in advance!
I realize this comments from 6 years ago but smoke from a brake line is a sign of trapped air inside. even though you bled the air out when you replaced the caliper it somehow had some more in there. if you've still got brakes then i dont see an issue.
Theres another piece inside the rear rotor I think has to do with the ABS its kind of tighten to gey out and will destroy your rear seal when you pulled it out. But still will need to replace em anyway so make sure you have the rear seals
