- In this video I replace the rear brake pads, rotor, and caliper on a 2011 ford f550.

One of the best how-to mechanical videos I’ve seen. Thank you. I’ve been a mechanic 15 years and won’t ever know it all. You helped me get our rollback back in service today.
Great video. I always make a scratch mark om the axle flrange and its corresponding alignment on the hub. I don't know if this makes any difference in preventing leaks, but was taught this in 1970. I also make a similar scratch mark on the driveshaft where it mates the pinion flange when removing the shaft. (not relevant for this video). I know may youtube mechanics think this is a waste of time, but old habits die hard. Thanks for introducing me to Asher Fulero's music. Kind regards, Craig
I usually try and put the drive shaft back where it was when it came off and in a situation where the axles seal on the flange I try and put them back too out of habit. If there’s a high spot from rust or something I like them to match up. This axle seals on the inside and I cleaned the axle flange so in this situation I don’t think it would matter. I do try and put them back where they were most of the time.
Thank you - the first info about the OTC socket really helped me out! The rest of the video was packed with very helpful details - exactly what I needed for my F450 dually.
This is how repair videos should be made. I see way too many YT'rs not do any research on OE repair information and then instruct people to make careless mistakes. Literally the last video I watched on this repair the guy used a pneumatic wrench to install the hub to disk bolts and claimed the bolts should be around 250+ Ft lbs!
Awesome video, lots of detail that answered a bunch of questions I had! Thank you!
No problem. Glad I could help.
Nice that you include tool description as well as part numbers, which is a big help. Thank you.
torque rating sheet insert diagrams also terrific to see.
Thank you. I try to include everything you would need to do the job. Sometimes the video gets a bit long doing that but it’s what I would like if I was doing it.
This was the best!!!! I greatly appreciate your attention to detail. Convinced me to take on this job.
Glad I could help out. I appreciate you watching and leaving a comment, thank you.
The only video on the whole of RUclips or anywhere else in the world for that matter gives the torque specs for that nut thank you
No problem. I prefer to torque fasteners, I worry about it if I don’t, so I include them in the video if I have them. I figure there’s people out there that would like to know.
I thought I was going to do a good thing and do this myself since my work truck needs a brake job.... Figured out I'm not prepared enough for this lol. I saw two specialty sockets I don't have 🤣
There isn’t much worse then getting it all torn apart and finding you need a tool. Especially in this day when you need to order everything.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic thankfully I had only gotten the tires off lol
Awesome Jason! Just what I needed.
Another great video Jason. Enjoyed watching it.
Thank you. I’ve actually been doing quite a bit of work on this truck lately. It’s needed rear springs, a front axle joint, the hydraulic valve body spool seals replaced, an new control cable, and a front hub lock. I’ll have some videos of a few things I haven’t already made videos on.
dude thank you. great video. wish you the best!
Great video job. Mine doesn't have inner E brakes just a grooved ring I assume is either anti lock brakes or speed sensor. I can't find replacement rotors for it. I tried slide hammering out ring, but it wont budge. Any ideas?
I haven’t seen that before. I would call the dealer and ask the parts department either for the part number or if they have them. If you can get a part number you can search them online and might be able to find them. Have you tried rockauto.com? They usually have a lot of parts and you might see them there.
Great work! Really enjoy your video's. Looks like thees fords have some pretty stout drive lines/rear axles. Going to most likely getting a 2018 f150 soon.
Yeah they do make a tough truck. They have all come pretty far from the trucks they used to be. You have half ton truck doing the work of the old 3/4 tons.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic Yea is crazy the horse power the new engines are putting out thees days. I am probably going to get the 2.7 ecoboost, was a little worried about long term reliability. I know the early first gen ones had some issues, but seems the second gens from 2018 and up are decent and get good mpg. Think like any think if ya take care of it it will return the favor.
Someone must have been in there before, when I took the caliper bracket off I used a 4’ pipe on my ratchet! Blue thread lock on them.

Is it necessary
Hi that lift looked like there was no nuts on the mounting studs. what is holding it in place. Thanks for the video it helped a lot.
Good job very professional Good luck
Thank you
Enjoyed watching. Thanks.
No problem, thank you for watching.
Excellent 🎉
hi ! that outstanding video quality!
also I will work on my rear rotor this weekend! I have a F450 2016 wonder if gonna be same spec presses as 2011 event for torque spec too ?
I believe 11-16 are the same and the 450 and 550 are as well. The only thing that might be different is the axle nut torque or some of the part numbers if you have a different axle. I think it’s the same though. The 350’s down are different with some of the specs.
Like the music at the end of the video. Wonder if they make a replacement hub with an oil fill hole in it like the hub you put on the other truck?
I don’t know if they do. Sometimes they have you pack the bearings with grease until the oil can get over into the hub from normal driving. I think that you can do that with this truck, but I opted to lift the one side to get it over the way I did. I know my dodge says to grease the bearings but the chevys don’t. They have the same axle so it’s weird one say to and not the other.
What socket did you use for the vack
Hey Jason: Have you rebuilt many Ford brake calipers? I normally don't rebuild customer's calipers because I can generally find decent re-mans at NAPA and a few others places. My problem came on my own service truck, a 2013 F350 Superduty. For some reason, that NAPA can't explain to me, remanufactured are not available for my truck's rear wheels. I have to buy new... for $197 EACH. Fortunately, the piston bores were good and the bleeder screws came out without trouble, so I figured I'd try one of the NAPA rebuild kits. Long story short, everything went together really well. I might be willing to try it on a customers, but I don't have any track record to judge by. Just wondered your thoughts?
I haven’t rebuilt any calipers because like you I have always been able to get them. With most things I figure someone rebuilds them there’s no reason I can’t. I might try one next time to see how it goes. I would say with something like brakes there’s going to be a liability on them and if you rebuild them your going to hold the liability for them if something goes wrong. For the difference in price I wouldn’t want the responsibility personally.
very good video thank you
You don’t have to thank me. Thank you for watching it.
Do you know if the torque for the spindle nut is the same on A 2021 f550
I do not. It’s possible it is if the axle is the same
great video C'mon
Thank you. Has your goat had it’s kid yet?
Jason i have a 2015 F350 Dually.and the surface where the rear axle seal rides it has a Grove of wear and wanted to know any company that sells Wear Ring Sleeves for the rear axle seal Thanks.
I haven’t needed one so I haven’t really looked. Can you get a 2 piece seal? They seal on the inside and outside and the 2 pieces of the seal rotate on each other.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic Hi yes theirs a 2 piece but only for single wheel i put the hub back on its holding that seal it had on looks like it was on for a while sorry for replay a little late Thanks for answering my comments.
I found this site if you measure the axle one of these Sleeves may work. I haven’t tried them so I don’t have experience with them. www.skf.com/binaries/pub12/Images/0901d1968028ef33-11337_2-EN-SKF-Speedi-Sleeve_tcm_12-128020.pdf
Interesting that the caliper mount brackets are torqued to 295 ft lbs, it sure didn’t look like they were torqued that tight when you took them off if I saw that right?
250/350 are 203ftlbs and 450/550 are 295ftlbs Out of the service manual I have. I just make it look easy.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic I’ll look again, but it looked like you used a breaker bar that was shorter than your torque wrench. And if they had used blue loctite like mine were, I don’t want to meet you in a dark alley!
I might have broken them loose before I pushed record, I’m not sure. It did look easy watching it.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic Yeah, I suspect that’s what you might have done, mine were an absolute bear to loosen due to the blue. But thanks for the video, it is greatly appreciated!
Do you have to replace the seals?
I would
How to you hook those clips the ones you used the needle nose for?
I first hooked them in the caliper bracket and then grabbed them on the end so I had the long part of the arm and the little hook at a 45 degreeish angle so I could twist the end down at the same time. It can be a little tricky. There should be little recessed holes they stick into to keep them from popping out.
Any info on how to hold the pinion yoke on a 2006 F450 to remove the pinon nut?
I would use an impact gun and it might help. Or if the axle is still in the vehicle put the wheels on the ground or hold the brakes. I would think an impact gun should get it off though. I’ve used big pipe wrenches to hold the yokes before and brace the handle against the ground or put a jack under the handle. I haven’t had to deal with getting the flat flange type off yet.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic I locked the pinion yoke with a chain wrench, used a 4:1 multiplier and a 3/4" impact and still can't move the damn thing. Checked to make sure the nut wasn't staked, Spicer 110 doesn't mention it, and I can't see any marks to show. Checked to make sure it was a right hand thread, it is, pretty much stumped on this one.
😳 that nut is on there huh. I don’t really know how I would get it off except maybe a long bar at this point.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic Thanks.
Do you have to pull the rotor to get the wheel seal out
I’m not 100% sure if you can change just the wheel seal without taking the rotor off but I believe you can.
Ok and are the torque specs going to be the same for the hub nut for a 16 f450. Couldn’t find anything online about it nor was it in my owners manual
There are two axles listed in the manual I have one is a Dana axle which it says to torque hub nut to 70ftlbs, back off 90 degrees, then torque to 18ftlbs. The other axle is a ford axle and says torque hub nut to 70ftlbs, back off 180 degrees, then torque to 15ftlbs. It has a note to apply inward pressure to disengage the ratchet mechanism on the hub nut. It looks to depend on which axle you have but both are pretty close and both are full floating axles. They should work for your vehicle.
Ok thanks would telling ford my vin number be able to tell them what my axle is weather its a ford axle or a dana axle
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic thanks for your help
I always assumed they had air brakes on the rear, now I know.
I think the next size up might have air brakes
So how much did the parts $$ cost $$
It’s hard for me to give prices because we get discounts for being a municipality, so the costs won’t exactly match up. Sometimes I don’t see the prices at all. I can’t remember exactly what this cost but the caliper was around $60, the pads and seals I’m not sure, and the rotor was around $100. I like using this site to get information on parts and the prices are pretty close to what we pay depending on the part. www.rockauto.com/ Our discount ranges depending on what it is.
Hey thanks
Are the f450 brakes bigger than f350?
I don’t know off hand. You can cross the part numbers on rock auto to see if they are the same.
How did you bleed the brakes
I gravity bleed it for a bit and had someone get in the cab a do a conventional pump the brakes and open the bleeder screw. I didn’t do anything special.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic ok thanks man
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic i have 2008 international cf500 that’s have the same set up as this truck just changed the break caliper on it and need to to know if I need different

Are you related to Wes?
No. I’m just a guy.
@@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic Cool, I found your channel through Wes. You fellows sound alike. Keep up the good work.
Thank you. Someone has said I sound like him
Sucks that you have to take everything apart lol
I know, a slip on rotor like the single wheel or front rotors would be nice. I think it’s because the inside wheel goes so far in the rotor needs to be pushed back to get the caliper to not hit the wheel.
Fantastic video.
Well produced and full of good info.
