    There is a Caliper type tool ( fairly cheap ) and specs in the C5/C6 Manual that will take the guess work out of the adjustment.
    Makes life a whole lot easier and correct.

      Can you provide a link? I figured there must be a tool for that but came up empty when I looked. Thanks for the input!

    Good job man. I’m big on not using hammers on rotors your keeping. If it’s not rusted on you can usually bump it to the inside on the edge of the rotor with your palm or your boots and it’ll fall off.
    Do you rotate the spreader to the inside of the hub or outside to spread it?

      Sorry it took so long to reply! I don't care to pound on rotors either but I've never had an issue just smack around the locating ring if it needs it. Thanks for watching and commenting.😎

    Looks like by the way the dust was caked up, it was a good time to do the job and make the video. LOL. Thanks for sharing!

      It was far worse than I had expected it to be. Thanks for watching!😎

    So. How many brake related jobs have you done so far just this year? I guess it worked just fine, right?

    Why can you not leave the ebrake on while taking on rotor? Does the ebrake stick to the rotor and hold it in place ?

    • @YellowJacketGarage

      Yes, the e brake shoes are on the inside of the rotor, like an old school drum brake.

      @@YellowJacketGarage yeah, I wish I would’ve watched your video prior to my brake job, now I’m replacing my ebrake assembly… womp womp.
