Thanks for this video. It’s nice to be able to refresh my memory and gather all the correct size wrenches and tools for prep. Makes the process efficient and less stress! Appreciate the lack of music, good quality camera work, and no cussing 👍

[@TwoFourSevenDIY]

Thanks man, glad you found it helpful!

Very informative and just what I needed to work up the courage to replace the rear left caliper on my 2012 Forester. I had the same issue with a rusted/seized piston. Thanks!!

[@TwoFourSevenDIY]

Glad you liked it. Good luck with your replacement!

Thank you for the video 👍

[@TwoFourSevenDIY]

No problem, glad you liked it!

Thanks for the video!! Anyone else not see any copper washers when they unscrewed the banjo bolt?

[@TwoFourSevenDIY]

Your welcome? Are you asking when I unbolted it? They were there. Or are you asking in a general sense? Question unclear.

Great video

Thanks!

Hey great video! Did you remove all the brake fluid before removing the line on the old caliper?

[@TwoFourSevenDIY]

No. Not nessessary.

I have a 2017 Forester and I need the torque spec for the Banjo bolt...One place says 13ft.lb. and another 38 ft.lb Way too crazy a difference...What is the correct torque??

[@TwoFourSevenDIY]

I don't apply a torque wrench on those. Just about 1/4 turn past finger tight. All it needs it enough to "squish" the copper washers to create a seal.
