Great job! Awesome how to video! The camera views great. I have seen a few videos on how to do a brake job, by far yours is the BEST! Will this work on the 2004 model? Do you have other how to videos?
How did you keep from snapping the retaining pins on the emergency brake? I have heard so many talk about snapping the pins even with the emergency brake off so what did you do about the retaining pin on the emergency brake?
I know this is an old post but the pins snap off as a result of rust that forms on the perimeter of the back of the rotor where the pads do not come in contact. As a result of this rust ridge the parking brake pads come into contact with the rotor as it is being pulled off. Your best bet is to remove the rubber grommet on the rotor and rotate the rotor until the opening where the grommet was is at the 6 o'clock position. Inside the opening you will see an adjusting screw. With a flat screwdriver engage the 'teeth' on this screw and cause it to rotate so that the parking brake pads move inward (i.e. they increase the gap from the rotor) just enough so that the rotor no longer makes contact and you can easily pull it off without snapping the pins. I hope this helps you in the future, as well as other RUclipsrs reading this.
This is by far one of the best how to videos for the pilot. Step by step simple instructions, steady video and detailed to the max
thanks very helpful ,I replace my brakes with this video 100% success .
Would have been nice to check the slide pins for easy movement.
Exelent 👍🏻
Nice vid. Don't understand why the need to open the bleeder screw when compressing piston?

Did you forget to re-install the rubber grommet on the rotor ? The one that covers the parking brake adjustment screw for the parking brake?

Thank you
don't understand why others didn't need to bleed the brake fluid?
