Nice detailed video. It was actually the part about the installation of the piston seal that was critical for me. Most other videos did not show his part in this much detail.
So many other videos skip the ring install, im glad you show how to do it, i was having the same challenge putting it in i thought i was doing it wrong
Hi I bought rebuld kit for honda civic from dealer and the kit come with 2 type of grease named Rubber grease and Niglube rm. Do know wich one used for seal and piston? And why 2 type of grease?
Peter you are good mate you done this caliper very easy and kwick and easy i dont know if some one making comments about this rebuilding caliper you are best mate not like other struggling like hell rebuilding caliper nice work thankyou peter finn
I have Raybestos WK 1770 Seal and Boot Kit and now try to install it on a new cylinder (I'm rebuilding the calipers). Which way that rubber boot goes to the cylinder (you can flip it over both sides). When it is on the cylinder which side of the boot is up? There is one on which there are some numbers printed on the surface of it (15, 3100, in very small print). So when installed on the cylinder, should these numbers be visible, or it should be opposite side on the top? Thank you for the film.
I was about to do the job when I found out about this, but car parts stores near my house don't sell such kits, they only sell new calipers. I think I'll do the job next week
Hi Peter your videos are excellent, easy to follow and clear, thank you for producing them. Question: my gasket kit for the caliper piston/cylinder does not have that metal wire ring to re-enforce the outer gasket fitting to the piston. That metal ring seems to make a lot of sense and I'd be re-assured to have it. However, correct me if I'm wrong, the car does not originally have this ring, my replacement calipers did not have them and my replacement gasket kit does not have them. What to do if I'd like to have these rings? Surely you can't just buy these? Maybe someone could provide the kind of steel (hi temperature or just 304 or 316 stainless or some other steel?), the wire diameter, the diameter to roll the wire to? Thanks Christian
i changed my breaks about a year ago as was really ignorant about the rubber boot. i didnt reinstall them and now the pistons a gummed up with break dust and other grossness. i think they somewhat seized too. now i need to dissasemble and reinstall new boots .
I ask some people on youtube if I can replace the dust boot without removing the piston they is hard but when I watch your video it ok not to remove the piston without removing
Yes I would say the same thing but it is most likely not his car, and as the car wizard said in one of his videos, you are a mechanic not a detailer, because if you go about cleaning someone else's car or car parts they might get mad and say "I have someone who does for me why are you wasting time and getting more labor time." If it is his car I would have definitely cleaned it and painted it an oem color but if it wasn't I would have at least sprayed brake clean on it to at least make the work a little cleaner so I get what your saying.
Not really. The brake fluid does not pass the inner seal and the outer dust cover is made of a different material. Putting brake fluid on the outer dust cover could cause deterioration.
Piston bore is not the outside.The 'common" material is EPDM, which is excellent for the majority of uses, and then Viton, used for the most extreme high-temperature applications, but the brake fluid compatibility has to be verified - different formulations of Viton will react differently to the fluid
The wire keeper ring needs to be installed inside of the outer rubber ridge that is visible, not outside. The wire ring is not working as it is supposed to be, in the installing shown. But a can of break cleaner and try cleaning the brake caliper and piston, on your next TAKE. You will probably find that the correct installation of the wire ring into the rubber gasket, can only be accomplished prior to inserting the piston into the brake caliper. Try pumping the brakes to extend the piston, to test this installation. Of course, then you will need a brake piston compressor kit to get the piston back into place.
Sorry but I think you pushed dust boot rubber at wrong side up side down , spring ring will be seated on boot rim and cylinder should be lifted half it easier to do
This comment, every time. Firstly, some people want to do this to learn how things work, not to save a buck. I felt far safer riding my first motorbike once I pulled the calipers apart and learned how brakes worked and saw what condition they were in. Secondly, parts are cheap in the US. Not always so cheap or even available, elsewhere in the world.
I would think that placing the boot first -- with the round-spring -- is easier... then you would need to insert a lubricated piston into the boot I am not a mechanic, and have never replaced the boot before... I am just thinking LOGICALY looking at the REVERSE PROCESS of uninstalling. BEST
You did an excellent job of instruction! However it would have been better if you cleaned the parts before assembly.
Thanks 👍

Good comment 😊👍
Hi peter, i own a 2004 toyota corrola. i have learned a lot from your videos for me to do repairs to my corrola. thank you !
So many other videos skip the ring install, im glad you show how to do it, i was having the same challenge putting it in i thought i was doing it wrong
Good comment and Thanks ! 😀👍
Hi Peter thank you very much for this video now I can do this myself well done keep up the good work.
Amazing video, I really thought I was going to have to buy an air compressor this whole time. Thank you so much!!
I have 21 camry xse. Would it be the same process as this one. Dealership wants 185 for new caliper says they dont sell the boot. Thx.
Yes
Excellent work Peter!
EXCELLENT Instruction about the Dust Boot Ring Clip installation. Thank you!
👍😀

Finally I learned how to install the dust boot ring. Great job Peter Finn
👍
Peter you are good mate you done this caliper very easy and kwick and easy i dont know if some one making comments about this rebuilding caliper you are best mate not like other struggling like hell rebuilding caliper nice work thankyou peter finn
Peter mate make some new videos please hybrid cars thank you you are best mate
Hi, would the kit work on a 2012 Camry?
Yes
Thanks bro, but did you keep the metal clip in there?
Yes I did 👍
best part! 6:47 make sure you turn the volume wayyyy up.
Omg im deaf now. Lol
Question? Where you order boots from?? Thank you nice video!

Great
Hi is it possible replace dust boot only whithout removing piston?
Yes
Peter will this part number work for a 2018 Camry?
Hi, 2018 have different part
my question is I've looked at a lot of online shops but I still can't find the piston itself are there any good places I can look
Yes, from Toyota dealer
Very informative article I can’t wait to fix 2018 Toyota Camry xse
Thanks 👍😀

Hi, you need this ring. And You can get this ring from Toyota dealer. Here is part number: 90522-76002
@@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor Thankyou
Peter you need a non floating vise my friend
A relaxing video to watch😴😴
Glad you enjoyed
i changed my breaks about a year ago as was really ignorant about the rubber boot. i didnt reinstall them and now the pistons a gummed up with break dust and other grossness. i think they somewhat seized too. now i need to dissasemble and reinstall new boots .
You are Right
I use a pop sickle stick to push that spring into position.
I used a plastic knife👍😁
Ops. The dust cover is installed up side down. The ring would go on easier if you got it right. Thanks for making the video showing your work though.
Thanks for the info!
Thank you very much Mr Finn
Great video thanks for helping people
No problem 👍
I ask some people on youtube if I can replace the dust boot without removing the piston they is hard but when I watch your video it ok not to remove the piston without removing
Yes
What's the model for the slider pin boots?
2.4 VVT-i
Thank you, good work
Peter. This is the K I C K - A S S V I D E O ! ! ! Thank you !!!
👍
Very good video. Well done. Thank you!
Thank You Sir. 😀👍
Merci monsieur , trés claire explication .
Good 👍
Why is your vise/bench not fastened to your table?!?
I need bolts. 😁🤣
Thank you so much for this!!
Any time!
Valve stems fill the banjo and stop the fluid from leaking out from the hose
Thanks for the visit
Thanx, great video!
👍
How I do that on Toyota hybrid?
Same job
@@PeterFinnTheCarDoctor But hybrid's brake is brake by wire, how I can push the brake piston to come off.
Your hands are way too dirty to be rebuilding at that point. All that dirt from caliper needed to be cleaned first before doing any rebuilding.
😀👍
Yes I would say the same thing but it is most likely not his car, and as the car wizard said in one of his videos, you are a mechanic not a detailer, because if you go about cleaning someone else's car or car parts they might get mad and say "I have someone who does for me why are you wasting time and getting more labor time."

You can also use clean brake fluid to lubricate the piston bore and seals for installation.😎
Not really. The brake fluid does not pass the inner seal and the outer dust cover is made of a different material. Putting brake fluid on the outer dust cover could cause deterioration.
Piston bore is not the outside.The 'common" material is EPDM, which is excellent for the majority of uses, and then Viton, used for the most extreme high-temperature applications, but the brake fluid compatibility has to be verified - different formulations of Viton will react differently to the fluid

Even Japanese cars need to be repaired?
Yeah ! 😂😂😂
what car is this ?
Camry
Vise grips and two deep sockets to cut off the brake fluid supply...
Sounds OK
Mashall thank you my brother
Thanks and welcome
Sorry but I think you pushed dust boot rubber at wrong side up side down , spring ring will be seated on boot rim and cylinder should be lifted half it easier to do
Good Comment. Thank you!👍😀
That is the reason why I do not use face book. Ads are so low.
Thanks.
Thank you
Welcome!
hoi thanks peter if watch 25 video to do this but just 1 off urz
Noted 👍
I was crying inside wishing for a can of brake cleaner to appear, or some degreaser and some scrubbing with a brush to take place :(
👍😀
Generally not worth it
Just buy a good one on line
I thoight so too...but if the bore is in good condition it is way less expensive.The outside doesnt matter..clean up the bracket too.
$60.00 compared to $5 for the kit
@@cxx1953 On rockauto a new or factory rebuilt is $40. Rebuilding yourself is never as good a factory..

Easier to just buy new caliper
Noted 👍
TOO much contamination. I would carefully clean the caliper body before installing components.
I would think that placing the boot first -- with the round-spring -- is easier... then you would need to insert a lubricated piston into the boot
I am not a mechanic, and have never replaced the boot before... I am just thinking LOGICALY looking at the REVERSE PROCESS of uninstalling.
