First and most importantly is to take the cover off the brake reservoir so you squeeze the piston without having to bleed anything and you don't need all those tools. Just remember to put that cover back on before you start pressing on the brack pedal
That was a great video. In my truck Bible it says the torque down the caliper bolts, the smaller ones to 24 foot pounds also, don't you have to start up the truck before you pump the brakes? I've seen people pump the brakes without the motor running, and with the motor running. it seems more logical that the motor should be running because their power brakes correct?
@deuceliter he probably has a 94-97 2WD they have single piston calipers and a one piece rotor with bearings and races. I want to upgrade to the 98-02 style like yours makes things easier to change out and improved braking
@@pablo3735 i have not yet to upgrade but i think you can swap the spindle assembly with the newer style. The also make kits i believe if you dont want to go junkyard hunting.
Excellent video which is very helpful. Thank you.
Great video!
Thank you!
That awesome bro thank you 🎉🎉🎉
I change rotor an Pads on my same Dodge ram 1500 2000 when im driving loud noise like it rubbing
Check the dust plate isn't slightly bent and rubbing the rotor. It happened to me after I changed mine.
@@deuceliter ok I did nothing Was Rubbing it might be my humor Axel what you think
An Also when I turn the rotor free it spin but not for a Long time if you understand what I'm saying
Great video

Good advice!
Should the e-brake be on or off?

Brake booster just helps with the amount of clamping power the caliper is able to produce, doesn't matter for bleeding.
I’m guessing that’s a four-wheel-drive that you did because my 2 Wheel Dr. the rotor is one piece with the hub assembly
This is on my 2wd. What year do you have?

@codybose515 that makes sense, Mines an 01. Thanks for the info!
@@codybose515have you upgraded yet. I’d like to do the same
