Totally need a t-shirt that says "don't have to go bananas" WWW
Why enrich Ecuador?
I agree!
Great educational video using a Dorman Brake Caliper bolt kit. 👍
I was just about to write the same thing!
Those magnetic rings on those bearings used now by all manufacturers go bad so often causing false brake activation it's a roll of the dice to touch one or even move it.
Love the way you torqued those rotor to hub bolts instead of sending them home with an air wrench.
Had one of our fleet vehicles lock up front right caliper, is that the case your saying
Hi Kenny, you are the master of your craft. You have an engineering mind. I don't think there is anything that you can't figure out if given a little time.
The air compressor really isn’t that bad. Just makes me feel like I’m in a shop. But I have been around heavy equipment all my life. lol.
I didn’t notice after you clean the rotor and put it back on that you got a couple of more grease spots on it with your gloves. Don’t mean to be picky, I just always been told over the years not to have any grease on a new rotor in the calipers. But I sure did enjoy the video. Thanks a lot.
Brake clean!!
I agree with the bananas t shirt! 3x and dark colors. I get dirty working on my cars. 71 and still working on my cars!
I will have to get Meg working on t-shirts. Good for you still turning a wrench at 71. Thabk you for your comment and for watching the channel. Keep wrenching 🔧 don't go bananas 🍌🍌🍌
I learned something today! I've never worked on one of these. Thanks Kennedy, and you didn't go bananas!😊
😂😂😂😂
Great video Kenny. If it were my vehicle, I would've deep cleaned everything before reassembly with brake cleaner. You don't have these apart often
...just, so piece of mind for the future.
You're absolutely correct. If I had more time, I definitely would have spent it on cleaning. Thanks for watching & keep wrenching 🔧
Reminds me of the brakes on 1990s Hondas. A lot of people really hated that captured rotor design. I would normally replace the hub and wheel bearing assembly along with the rotor. This way you get new wheel bearings along with the brake job and don't have to worry about using a press which could damage the bearings.
Yep similar stupid design. I owned a couple of those early 90s Hondas & and an Acura Vigor. I don’t recall being able to buy hub assemblies back then. From what I remember you had to press the bearing out. Which destroyed it.
@@stevemccauley5734 correct. But you can buy the bearing and hub assemblies as a unit and they're already pressed in. So at that point just bolt on the new rotor and tadaa the job is done. Too easy.
Never had the pleasure working on that particular vehicle.
Great video. I was changing front brakes on my wife's car on Wed. and came across a big surprise. One of the caliper pistons only compressed a half inch and stopped. Wouldn't go any further. I removed the bleeder screw and tried again. Nothing. It was stuck. Had to replace the caliper and bracket too.
@ 26:50 ----> the wall needs more FINGERPRINTS 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂 one would think we toss people against the wall. Thanks for making me laugh & watching the channel. Keep wrenching 🔧
Since I am up north, I bet those T50 bolts are fun to extract if the heads strip.
Yep ask many European transit owners , been there but got lucky
@@peterharvey1762 First time I did hub bearings on my 2008 Lucerne I had to totally trash the hub and bearings to get it off. Since I used anti seize now its not really an issue.
How about anti seize on rotor mounting to bearing surface?
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Try one from the rust belt those torn bolts are virtually gone and seized solid. What a great design.........
We lived in NY for many years. I have done battle with them & it's not fun. Thanks for your comment and for watching the channel. Keep wrenching 🔧
I like the double click that’s the way it was taught
Had captive rotors on a 1996. Absolute nightmare. Unnecessarily complicated so switched to Toyota :-)
Yeah. Honda finally got rid of those in 1998.
Just five tiny bolts are the only thing that keeps the f’ing front wheel from coming off?!!
Light helped.
My wrong doing: too much caliper grease on slide pins is detrimental because it fills up cavity too much. Just wanted to add that as a public service announcement.
Ppl mock door man a lot but ya not everything is good but they do step up and make lots of aftermarket solutions that work sometimes better than OEM parts. Problem is who going to step up when manufacturers tell you to kick rocks when you need a module??
I probably will never work on one of these, but I'm interested in knowing why not remove the hub then the rotor, vs, removing the hub/rotor together? I'm sure there must be a reason. I'm interested in understanding it.
When you compress the piston, do you take off the master cylinder cap? Great videos. I am a diy and appreciate all of the tips.
Very rarely. Thank you for your kind words. Keep wrenching 🔧
I seen this before torque to X ft/lbs and turn 90 degrees. I wonder why don't they just spec the final ft/lbs. Do you know why if so I would appreciate you input. KOKO!
Normally bolts that call out for that type of spec are considered torque to yield. You'll want to install new bolts when that is called for. Bolt threads can stretch and can become unreliable under high stress situations. Like head bolts, rocker arms...
I will bring you my car soon Mr. Kenny. My lower hose is white not black.
I worked from 1975 to 1992 and never replaced bolts when doing work unless they broke or badly corroded. I guess the quality of parts has gone down since China
True. But some manufacturers stipulate replacing bolts on certain components
how about removing the old grease on the pin and putting some fresh on them
Oh no, Dorman bolts. I expected them not to fit.
😂😂😂😂 I've used several of their bolt kits lately & was pleasantly surprised by the quality. Thanks for commenting & watching the channel. Keep wrenching 🔧
Great job 👍
Great video
why no anti-seize???????
That wouldn't be bad to do at all when it comes to wheel brg's .
Ralphy 😊
Need more light on items?
Old rotor didn't look bad....
The brake pulsation said otherwise, but we don't do pad slaps on any of our customers' cars. Thanks for watching and keep wrenching 🔧
Call Eric O. and ask him.
I am hoping you or some other mechanic can please help. I have an 02 Yukon recently purchased in good shape. Idling a little rough and economy was poor so I changed plugs. They were definitely overdue. Afterwards I had an even tougher idle along with surging at idle. Took it in and they cleared codes to "relearn" the CPS. I drove it a few hundred miles and nothing had changed. So I opted to change the CPS. Now it's running worse. Not throwing any codes at all now. Mechanic neighbor hooked his OBD up to it and said fuel and air are all where they should be. I took it in again and nobody seems to know what's happening because there are no codes. Any ideas that can help me?
Clean the mass air meter & throttle body to see what happens. Do you mean CKP crank sensor, CMP cam sensor. Changing either of those won't change idle.
If I had a $1 for everytime I laid something down and it grew legs and walked away😂.
Torque the 5 outside bolts?
You dont clean the rotor???
He did in the video
Ford don't trust chinece steel but use it
That was a silly design
Maybe not that difficult but still a stupid design. Any manufacturer that builds cars like this with the rotor behind the hub plate should be fined lol. Same with unnecessarily using wheel bolts instead of lug studs & nuts. This sort of thing is just not a necessary part of the design. It was only done because they can.
You are just less likely to service brakes with an over-involved, stupid design.
ahh another really stupid design and another vehicle not to buy.
Exactly Ford should Be prohibited from Building Automobiles Permanently IMO Just A terrible Deceitful Company..
Bet this is a fun job on a 10 year old rust belt vehicle. What an unnecessarily terrible design.
Way to much bullshit for a simple brake job!!!!!!
Fords better ideas are pretty stupid. I did a few brake jobs on those before I retired and like a lot of other mechanics I had to ask myself....what the hell were they thinking?...
Nobodyvturnsvritirsvanymore?
I had thebritirs on toyota turned at oreillys
