You are 100% right, and if you slow down the video and watch closely at 7:42 you can see the pad with the wear indicator is installed on the inside. What you are looking at the 7:50 mark is the shim that is put into the caliper bracket where the pads slide, there is a part of that shim sticking out. That part is non functional and it's just there, does not do anything. Thanks for watching, you obviously watched the video closely. The part at 7:42 is sped up, and I should have left the video at real time, then it would have been more obvious. Thanks
For my 2020 Nissan Rogue, I required a bi directional scanner tool to put the car in service mode. The caliper is also quite different than in this video.
This was a 2017, so I guess its changed for 2020. Also you don't need bi-directional. Bi-directional usually refers to actuation tests and they are pretty expensive, I have one, you just need one that has reset features, like oil reset etc. You can get a cheaper scanner like this ruclips.net/video/qm3fkiKWKos/видео.html if that's all you are going to do. Just check to make sure it works on your vehicle. There are the super cheap scanners that just read, then there are the ones that have reset features, and then you move into the bi-directional class.
I have a 2019 and I couldn’t get the bottom caliper bolt off and it just kept spinning. So top caliper bolt came off and I ended up taking brake hose off. I tried tighten it the bottom bolt but it then kept spinning but hand tighten seemed to work. So I left it. Just hope it’s fine like that. I started doing other side and I left bottom bolt alone and did same procedure.
Hey Thanks for your comment. I'm assuming that you are talking about the actual caliper pins, and not the caliper bracket bolts. I'm concerned that the lower caliper bolt kept spinning, its threaded so this should not happen, kind of like a bolt getting threaded through a nut, once it bottoms it should get tight and stop. I wonder what would have happened if you tried to back out that lower bolt and wedge a screwdriver between the bolt head and caliper thus putting some pressure to try to get the pin to spin out. If you have any noise at all I would check on it, you don't want the pin coming out or the caliper could flip up and hit the inside of the wheel (barrel) and lock up that one rear wheel.
@@ryanhayward5910 That's what I would do, just take the whole thing off. You can probably get a socket with an extension to get to the caliper bracket bolts, then disconnect and plug the brake hose, and then remove the caliper and caliper bracket as one unit and take it to the bench, see what's up with that lower bolt as its pretty weird. I'm wondering if its stripped, but there is suction from the grease holding the pin in. Once its on the bench I would use vise grips or some good pliers to pull and twist. Once the pin is out you can inspect the threads and your case should be solved. I just would not feel comfortable with the pin like that. You just never know and an accident it not worth it. I would be curious what it is.
@@GarageKing hey so yeah I ended up getting the bolt out from my work and the threads were indeed flattened inside and so was the bolt. All I did was loosen it but sometimes I get mixed up with the ratchet tighten it and maybe I just did that by mistake but still I wouldn’t think it would have done tht to caliper threads and slider bolt. I got new calipers for both rears to wear evenly and brakes are done. Brakes are solid again. Thank you for your prompt input. Some people on here don’t reply at all and it’s frustrating but thank you again!
I am putting you on the screen while we work so I can catch with my buddy. So the playlist has started to show me what I missed.
Well thank you kindly :) Much appreciated :)
New routers are super shiny!
And not super expensive !!!
Great tip about the air tools!
They help for sure !
7:50 the pad with clip must be installed inside the caliper not the outside

Awesome, thanks for the reply and the advice. I will check into this right now.@@GarageKing

What did you put on the hub to help stop the rotor from rusting on there?
Hey there, just regular anti-seize (the silver stuff) like this amzn.to/3yc8RbM
@@GarageKing Thanks!

@@GarageKing yeah I tried that very thing and nothing. I think to be safe I’m just going to replace caliper bracket at this point. Thoughts?

What did you need the 21mm socket for?
I used a 21mm deep to take off the wheel lugs, and a 21mm shallow on a torque stick to put the lugs back on ; )
Where in the hell do u live? Rust County, Rustville? Y’all gotta rust problem there.
You are telling me, I live in Canada and we use too much salt in the winter, and well, you see the results my friend.
@@GarageKing get out of Canada bro, obviously too much salt and way too much Trudeau
@@olenmullins1333 you know it, the US is beautiful and you guys have so many nice places to live !!!
Torque specs?
bracket bolts are 62ft/lbs and pins are 32 ft/lbs
thanks!! @@GarageKing
