If the corrosion on the slide pins is surface rust, then you should be able to clean up with a piece of mild duty sand paper and clean. Don’t forget the slide pin grease when installing the pins whether you cleaned the pins or replaced
Yeah it's an easy fix. I did a winter tire change recently and I always check the brakes. Those pins are easily cleaned using a metal file (or sandpaper) Grease them up after and reinstall!
Good General Over View but if you ever do any other videos TRY and show close ups of DETAILS that the average person may not know that YOU take for granted Like in this video the exact way the CLIP SPRINGS and how they exactly go on ( SHOW CLOSE UP ) or what you do EXACTLY when bleeding the break lines after a caliper REPLACEMENT . A BETTER CLOSE UP of the break pads and which go where. You said something about it but I was not clear what you were talking about, BUT OVER ALL REALL GOOD JOB AND WE THANK YOU.
Best video of the proper way to do a brake job on this truck by far! Thanks! Would appreciate if you know torque spec for rear caliper slide bolt as well as I need to do this job very soon.
on my car, the one there in the video the FRONT Caliper Slide Bolt Torque Spec is 55Nm (41Ft.Lbs.), and the REAR Caliper Slide Bolt Torque Spec is 27.5Nm (20Ft.Lbs.)
While you have the caliper and the old brake pads off.....do yourself a favor. Use one of the old pads and press one side against the piston. Probably the inside pad but can be either. Press a C-Clamp between the rotor frame...(side with the Flex line hose.)... Makes compressing the piston so much easier and eliminates the risk of the C-Clamp from sliding off the piston and possibly puncturing one of the piston dust seals. For front brakes I have tried two ways and both work well. Method 1: Align the Clamp with one of the pistons....(doesn’t matter which one and slowly compress that piston. Loosen the Clamp and repeat the same step for the other piston. Option 2: Depending on the caliper design this may not be as easy. Center the Clamp in between the two pistons and slowly compress the piston. Same result as method one but may save a minute or two. You are not worried about the old pads if they get damaged....They are going to the same junk pile as a rotor without damage. For the Master Cylinder: loosen but DO NOT Remove the reservoir cap. This will make the piston retract easier by less resistance. Very simple reason for compressing the piston.......... Takes up the difference between the old pad and the hopefully thicker new pad. The Anti Sieze on the rotor hub is a good trick will make the rotor easier to remove for next brake inspection/replacement
fishycomics that was Osmo Action rocksteady on a little table tripod handle. Unlike GoPro all with one battery, and no fails during the recording. I planned on using the GPH as second camera, but guess what the battery was dead, drained over night.

excellent step-by-step demonstration! thank you for this great video!
Very informative and helpful. Thank you.

Wish I would have seen this video before I beat the tar out of my front rotors getting them off the hub this past weekend.

I did the same thing my steering wheel shakes when i brake when im going over 65mph? Help please?

Agreed. Key word: "proper". Great job!
Excellent video. Well done. Thanks
My calipers bolts/slide pins take a 7mm not a 11mm why is that?
They make two different sizes. The pins are the same size, just the tools are different.
Bonus points for Bilstein Shocks!!!......sorrynforgot this was a brake video....😂😂
I am missing the o-rings that hold the brake discs. Where can I get new ones? Does anyone have a part number? Thx
bro please complete cmera.. wait I am on a car build Awesome work I still use the slider and molykyte them.. again great camera work

Thank you, awesome explanation!
I have a '12 Overland Summit with HD brakes. Is this the same braking system?
yes, just different size
Thanks, super helpful
😍 this is great. Thanks for posting!!!
Thanks
