South Main Auto Repair LLC how come you put lube on the backside of the hardware but not on the frontside where the pads ride?
I swear Eric, if you put up one more freakin' brake job video.........I am going to watch it as well.
Filming and still gets hardware clipped in before Rodger completely spins down. What a legend.
The theatrical effort receives a thumbs up.👍🏻
Of the hundreds of brake videos out there you and jimthecarguy have the most detailed and enjoyable to watch.
always a good day when there is a new SMA video to start it off
There's this guy on RUclips that normally uses a sand blaster to clean up his calipers. I forget his name but he's the one that used to talk about Banshees all the time.
FrugalPrepper's Garage & Garden had a show on Wednesdays. Seemed like an a'ight dude. Earthquake fan.
Didnt he use purple grease too?
This red stuff burns my bisquits
You always pay great attention to the small details, we all know that it will work perfect after you have repaired it.
And a great tutorial for the average joe too :-D.
"Don't follow this video for instructions" had me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dr O working the rubber boot so delicately.
Another great job Eric O , look forward to the next video.
I love watching your brake and rotor videos keep on making them!!
I love starting out my day with an SMA brake job!
Thank you for inviting us into your shop.
Excellent Video as always Mr SMA
Really cool and informative video buddy, and a great brake job.
Thanks and keep on wrenching 👍
Your Grandma was a wise lady.
I so thankful that we dont have as much trouble with rust whereI live. We do have to be careful buying used vehicles here that come from Michigan and other northern states.
Thoroughly enjoyable video! Great job and great commentary. Will be doing this on my wife’s Murano this week
Thanks for the videos. I always go to them when working on my vehicles. Keep us updated on parts and the ones hard to find. I am from mansfield ohio and know the weather conditions make cars hard to work on. I differently appreciate the electircal problems you diagnose. Makes me realize i can do this work my self. When i should let a professional like you work with it.!
Thanks for the burping tip in the past I didn't know but used it on my recent subaru rear brake job!
Very thorough instructions I thought this video was great. Thanks now I’ll have to try it on mine. Gabe
i wish i had your patience your work is outstanding
Everyone loves a good brake job vid!!
You torque stuff to factory specs like I do, by feel. I've never had anything fall off my brakes.
Excellent video.
I love the Ceramic Extreem noe that I've been introduced by Dr O! I buy the orange because you can get that in small tubes vs the big bottle that I would never use in my lifetime. Thanks Eric!
I had my brake cleaner in my hand, just waiting for the moment you brought yours out but that moment never came..............crying big tears.
I just did a brake job The SMA way.. sweet.. Thanks Eric
I'm glad you did this vid. It's been common for Nissan, Hyundai, and Kia to bury the caliper bolts, and even saddle bolts, behind their multi-link rear suspension for several yrs. Alot of DIY guys take a whole pile of stuff apart, when a bit of strategy is all it takes.
My brother and I did this job on his 2011 Murano. The stupid fastener placement was definitely worthy of some expletive spewing. Great job as always. Greetings from not quite as rusty Pittsburgh!
Great video and nice blues interlude.
Autozone ad on Dr. Os. Channel my heart goes out to the SMA family. But other than that Another great video as usual and keep them coming.
I LIVE IN HEAVEN!!!! But I come from about 40 miles North of you and don't miss rust and slush one damn bit!!
Nice job Eric
Loved the driving music 🤠
What a nice town..... omg I just can’t with the rust on those cars.... being a car guy from Southern California, I would never be able to live in a state where the cars are eaten alive and done with in a decade or so. Love the videos Eric!
Nice little test drive at the end, didn't notice many local shops 👍
Great video! Thank you.
God bless
Paul
Thanks Eric.
Car's got a bangin stereo system, handles great and accelerates like no other. (according to the video)
The 11 year old Buick with 14,000 miles battery change would of been awesome bonus footage! Lol. Bet it was the 3800 V6? Love it!
So many stopsigns! Greets from sunny Amsterdam.
At 11:08 "Meow" 😂😂 Super Troopers fan right there.
Would love to see more brake line bending/flaring video's. Or brake bleeding with and without abs if the procedure is different? Don't get me wrong, I like watching brake jobs, would like to see/hear other things. I learn something every time.
Man I hope the folks in your town realize how lucky they are to have an independent shop with your skill set.
I've come to really dislike Nissans, but that looked fairly straightforward ... aside from all the room they give you to remove the caliper pins, lol. Reminds me of a Ford Expedition front end component (can't recall if it was the upper or lower control arm) - they could've put the bolt in from the opposite direction, so that it could be removed ... but NOoooooo ... they had to install it in the direction of the frame! Just like that car you did where you had to drop the whole cradle to extract a couple bolts. Never been so mad in my life on that job. Ford engineer's ears were ringing that day!
Never saw the red stuff before. I've been using the purple stuff for close to 10 years. Works great. I'm one of those people that isn't big on changing things. I still eat 4 scrambled eggs for breakfast, as I have for over 30 years now ... and I get the same meals - every time - at McD's, BK, and Subway whenever I go to those places. Probably why I get so mad at auto engineers - they change things 3x a model year! 😁
Trying to catch up on my RUclips vids - just not enough hours in a day. Still trying to get caught up work wise. Fixed a Stihl FS80, a Husqvarna, and Poulan (chin-saw) saw, a Kubota TG1860, a J/D LX172, a Polaris 90 ATV, cooling fan in a PT Cruiser (which later melted down for unknown reasons after it puked all it's coolant out - towed that toilet here today with a blown head gasket ... and got to lay down in a nice, warm parking lot puddle full of tobacco spit and some kind of pee, to hook up my winch to the rear axle ... and got to make TWO trips, since I forgot the keys the first time ...🤬 ), mounted & balanced a front tire for a Yamaha Roadstar 1700, and fixed and delivered another J/D, an old White, and a fancy Simplicity Prestige 4x4. It's lawn season!! Haven't even started my RD350 since October! Blaspheme!! I still have to do a strut overhaul, rear shocks, and redo a modification I made to the OD solenoid in the tranny in the Volvo. Solenoid fails and kicks you into 3rd gear while you're doing 80 on the highway - great design there. I fixed that by cutting a slot from one port to another in the solenoid ... but I guess it wasn't big enough. Works great when warm ... but when cold, it won't hit OD until you hit 4,500 rpm. The Dremel cookie wasn't thick enough I figure - another pass next to it should do it. 👍 That solenoid's only job is to allow manual shifting (by button) from OD to 3rd (same thing mashing the pedal to the floor will do). Saw no use for that, so was easier & cheaper than replacing the failed solenoid.
Somewhere, some place, there was someone who lubed up their pads and rotors, and then attempted to sue Permatex! I'd bet on that! They probably lived in MA, too ... 🤣
Murano's look simple. Famous last words!
Nice! Thanks for the fix Eric! I may need to go sniff some brake clean though ....
I think there were a few "California stops" on that test drive there Mr. O. ;) Great video as usual!!
A job well done as usual. I'd think being the premier auto guy in town you'd have automatic overhead doors. ;-)
Sma on hump day hallelujah!
"DO NOT APPLY TO THE BREAKING SURFACE OF THE PADS", however, works good for your lips ;) Gr8 video as always!
Nice !
You must have played in the band. Great cadence on the horn toot backing out.
Altima is the same way. Never pull control arm. Take the bracket off with the caliper. Assemble the pads on the bracket after collapsing the caliper. You can remove rotor while it's all out if the way
By jacking up the rear suspension from the bottom, you will then have clearance from lower control arm to remove lower pin to grease it.
I have a Murano and you can get the lower caliper bolt if you jack up the rear tire a bit to clear the control arm
Such a beautiful place you are at in new york
Nice.
I may be weird but I enjoy doing brakes and suspension rebuilds, they're oddly satisfying...
I don't enjoy doing exhaust systems...
Living in the driest State of the driest continent (apparently) at least has one advantage...I still have the original factory rotors on my 1997 Honda Prelude. Really.
That's South Australia btw
S.K. Wirrel I still have the original rotors on my 1988 Isuzu Impulse in The Peoples Republic of Kalifornia.
kdmq Except I live in a hilly area and I drive it like I stole it, but it doesn't go out much these days. However in the past it did a lot of interstate travel, plus I always chose pads that didn't wear rotors that much. I like how on the rotor hats it's stamped Honda 97 :-)
InsideOfMyOwnMind I have a 1989 Daihatsu Feroza (Rocky) with the originals too, but they are now below minimum spec and due for replacement next time. Been putting that job off as long as possible because the wheel bearings and 4wd hubs have to come off and get replaced because the rotor is bolted to the back
S.K. Wirrel how would living in a dry climate affect your rotors? Wouldn't they still wear from use?
jhitt79 Eric was specifically talking about not having rust due to salt used on roads, no need here, but yes they'll wear from use but it depends on the pads you use and how much highway driving you've done. I did lots.
3:50 is homeboy working in flip flops lol
@erico love your channel brother. I honestly watch every single day after work. But these consistent brake jobs are killing me. I'm all for them but maybe you should do one with modern day electronic rear brakes like on a audi or Mercedes. I'm still going to watch all the other brake jobs even though I've done 1000's of them myself just for the commentary lol but it would be great to see how you deal with the electric brake systems. Power probe or Scan tool ect.
@southmainautorepair
It's Friday...?? You been sleeping instead of editing again Eric O...? lol.... It's Wednesday in Oklahoma! Nice video fella. Way to go!
Nothing worse than sticking your rubber plug in too far! 😅
Eric I generally if I can't get access I'll try 'jacking' up the corner to compress the suspension. This will sometimes (not always) give you clearance for bolt removal!
Loved the tunes at the end! 😅
Thanks for the video. I'm doing my wifes car in the morning 01/23/2024.
That's interesting to see a window put into the rotor to get at the parking brake adjustment screw. With the loss of metal from drilling out that hole, the rotor would have a mass imbalance, so I wonder if they put a compensating weight on the inside to rebalance the rotor. Or, maybe with rotors being so light and thin these days, it isn't significant....
Thanks for the video. Do you crack the Master Cylinder so you are able to push the piston back?
Shiny new parts are better than rusty old ones 👍
Eric, i am coming up on 8 years on an ac delco battery. Going to try to get as long as i can out of it. Lol
Nice
you should do a video of what happens when you forget to pump up the brakes, add some excitement to the channel :))
Nice boogie tunes on the ride
I don't know why, but that new caliper lube looked tasty.
Like the filling from a doughnut.
Halloween cupcake frosting
I thought you were going to say that the warning was one of those, " this product is known to cause cancer in the state of California". Whenever I see that I say to myself, "Well thank god I don't live in California!"
Yeah, there seems to be a lot of cancer in California...
Vladimir Putin Hey STFU. Lol That's where I am. The biggest problem we have is retardation in the capital building.
Surprising how little rust there is on this thing compared to the Chevy's, Ford's and Dodge's that come to SMA
wish i lived across the street from SMA . wouldn't need to wait for the rustyrado to get its weekly fix.
Had a mechanic I go to tell me I needed inner and outer tie rods on both sides to fix the shaking so I took it to another all I needed were new tires
What the hell?? no brake cleaner blast Eric..but the test drive music did help.
Anoher job well done
Before tightening to factory specs were you tempted to put Loctite on the caliper bracket bolts? They seemed to have been coated with something when you removed them. Also, just to upstage the Buick, my 11 year old Jeep GC diesel (180,000 km or about 108,000 miles) still has the original battery, brakes, shocks and struts which are still all good. More vehicles like this could put mechanics out of business. So far it has only needed a serpentine belt and tires but it has a few rust blisters on the fenders as we use a lot of road salt in Canada too. I enjoy your channel, good camera work, great commentary and lots of nice tools. I don't have as many wrenches, but what I do have gets used because I also have a 2004 Dakota with 140,000 on which everything needs to be replaced again.
I always grease the hub also to prevent the rotor from sticking next time.
brake video and a cup of joe..... good morning.....
I must be honest. I painted my brake pads with brake grease and I ended up warping my rotors. rookie mistake.
so when you gave the disclaimer I looked around embarrassingly.
Is there a risk of damaging the master cylinder by pushing the piston back in? I’ve been doing it this way for years. Other you tubers say to use the bleeder method. Thanks for all the great videos.
Do you have a standard loop around town that you take vehicles on for a test drive after every job? I'd like to know what your neighbors think of SMA?
been meaning to ask you Eric I haven't seen you using ratchet spanners not a fan of them or prefer the impact stuff ?
Hi Eric, the rubber plug hole is near 6 O'clock position at 2:50, and at 4:05 the brake shoes adjuster is 12 O'clock position. So how do I align the hole and adjuster at a same position?
what is the purpose of the black tip on one of the caliper pins and not the other?
2) what sort of drag do you want to start with on the rotor/pad? just to the point where it is touching and no more?
Eric, you edited out repositioning the rotor so the adjuster lined up... ;-)
I just put acdelco brake pads and rotors on my Chrysler 300c and I tried out that ceramic grease. It's been 2 weeks and it's dead silent. Never used it before but seems to be fine. And did I miss it or did you skip showing the caliper bracket being tightened back on? Don't want to have a caliper flip on the freeway!
The heaven without rust is called California
You file just fine. I would use a wire brush to clean the file.
“Amish style” brilliant!
The one caliper pin had a black tip, where does the black tip go? On the top or bottom and what does it do?? Why different??
Where do you usually get your brake pads for a nissan ? Local parts store, dealer, Rock Auto ? Just curious.
I'll be visiting Patreon.. :-)
A question from one tech to another: For the caliper slider pins that have the rubber bushing on the tip, is there a general rule of thumb as to where the location (top or bottom) is supposed to be? Is it different for every vehicle? Is the rule of thumb that the "leading" pin (pin which would receive the friction of compressing first as the vehicle brakes from driving down the road in the forward direction of travel) supposed to be the location of the pin with the rubber bushing?Just wondering as it seems like some vehicles have the pin with the rubber bushing on the top and some have it on the bottom, however some vehicles also have the brake calipers facing the front of the vehicle while others have them facing the rear. ThanksChris from Ontario Canada
The Flat Rate Master performed the test drive.
That red Tahoe is still hanging out.
