I’ve looked at a dozen of these and this is the best how to break video I have seen! Thank you very much I’m going to be doing exactly this, this weekend!

Why would someone open the brake fluid line and risk getting air inside if you are not changing the fluid? I wouldn't recommend opening the brake line unless you are doing a flush.
Great video! Thanks so much for putting this one out. I just checked out your website and noticed you have a warehouse in my hometown of Littleton MA! Very nice!!
Great video. Great instructions. Great parts. But I did get a wrong clip in my shipment and had to use one of the old ones. Otherwise. Fantastic. Thank you!

Thanks for a great video and clear instruction! I’ve changed brakes on my old ‘98 TJ, and this next weekend I will do both front and rear on my ‘15 JKU. Just wanted to double check!
1A Auto Parts I’m currently stuck on getting my rotor off (I got my driver side off at the cost of bending my dust shield but that’s another problem) any recommendations for removing a stick rotor? I’ve been hitting it for a few hours now
Love your video! But I cannot find the kit she used. On your website how do I order all the E brake shoes, Springs adjusters. I want to buy that kit she used. Please direct me to it sure would appreciate it!! is there a part number you have or what do I do to get it? I have a 2013 jeep two door Rubicon.
honestly lmao. I just removed my 35inchers with minor struggle and I came in to watch this video and I see sue yank that boy off like its a leaf off tree... idk whether to be jealous of her or feel bad about myself😂. prolly both, she's awesome.
Great video, but you shouldn't ever spray brake cleaner in the direction of/near any rubber or plastic components - it will degrade them. Instead, you should spray brake cleaner on a shop rag and then clean the rotor with the rag.
I found the rear shoes and pads and rotor, but it does not come with the springs and adjuster. How do you get that all in one like she had it in the video? Ready to order just can’t find it.
I actually disagree with the comment. The reason why you open the bleeder screw and not just the master cylinder cap is to prevent the brake fluid to go into the ABS system. If there is a dirt, it could damage it.
Yea dont do that...the video is correct , always open the bleed screw and flush the old fluid out rather than putting reverse pressure on system and running fluid back through the ABS valve and into the system...you should be flushing New brake fluid into the system after a change anyway.
Everyone has a different procedure however she didn't bleed them she just released pressure. Some think it matters to remove the old fluid and some believe that it;s fine if it;s not exposed to the atmosphere. Technically you should not use fluid that has already been opened.
A1 Auto, was replacing my front pads & rotors on my 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited . Both went on easily but I'm having brake issues that I didn't have before . Doesn't happen all the time but when I hit the brakes it feels like the abs is engaging , can feel it right by the brake pedal coming from the engine compartment. I am not getting any abs lights or any traction control lights coming on at all. Even hooked up my obd2 scanner that can diagnose ABS codes and nothing comes up. When I was compressing the caliper piston to put it back on the rotor I didn't have the bleeder screw open or the master cylinder cover open . Should I try opening the bleeder screws and bleed the brakes or could I have done some damage to the abs system when compressing those caliper pistons . Let me know what you think or could do or parts you have to fix this issue. Thank you
+dave M We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
When taking off my rotor my ebrake was completely caked with wet and dry brake dust and muck. Everything is caked in black inside and out, I took paper towels and some brake cleaner but wgat would you suggest to getting it 100% clean l. Thank you
After a rear brake job on the same generation jeep wrangler, one of the sides squeals/creaks when rolling in gear with the brakes applied and just letting the jeep roll forward or backwards extremely slow. It is only one side. All brand new and followed the directions by the book here. What gives? Bad set of pads?
Brake Shoes; if anyone was wondering about the Parking Brake Shoes not included in this vid, here's the corresponding video from 1A Auto - ruclips.net/video/pO-s24EZE5A/видео.html
Which one is it? I’m also getting two different answers it’s either 55lbs or 77lbs has anyone figured out why two different torque specs? For the rear caliper bolts?
This is a good video, but she installed the wrong brake pad the first time. Check out the wear indicator when the pad is installed then look again as the caliper is installed. It goes from the top to the bottom. Still a nice video, but I think some creative editing was done to make it flow so smoothly. But just make sure you get the pads on the correct sides. Take a picture with your phone of the old pads before you take them off. That will help you get things back the correct way.
After watching this, I have come to believe I would not be able to perform this task, as our Jeep is hella rusted. Thank you for very detailed instructions though, maybe next time, on a newer jeep
+Paul & Rene Thanks for checking us out. A lot of rust can certainly make the job difficult, and sometimes it is best to bring it to a garage that has more resources to work on vehicles. That way you can avoid possible headaches that go along with dealing with heavily rusted brakes! 1aauto.com
Exactly how HIGH was the camera person during the making of this? Did they need all these epic action shots? Other than that, I will use this video to change my brakes for my 2010 JKW, because....I do NOT want to pay $1692 at the dealership...Great video!
Think how much better the world would be if there were more women like this. Whenever I have the chance to hire young ladies at my shop I do. They come back years later and tell me their doods are intimidated by their skills on the tools. Then I think.. all the real men died off and left a bunch of man bun sissy’s. Perhaps your vids will help. we should all know how stuff works. Then manufacturers could kiss planned obsolescence behind.

1A Auto videos are the BEST ! And this mechanic knows her stuff. I love watching a skilled mechanic do it right. She’s legit, not a poser!
Why don’t you show how to back off the ebrake. She got “lucky” but others don’t.

Except how to back off the E brake…
This is fake where are all the curse words
Or empty beer cans
Lovely to see such efficient and careful technique.
Why would someone open the brake fluid line and risk getting air inside if you are not changing the fluid? I wouldn't recommend opening the brake line unless you are doing a flush.
Doing my rear brakes this weekend, I like the opening of the bleeder screw and letting it drip out. Great video.
+Todd Hoffmaster Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com
She is a real pro, great job.
Good guide but just one part, "we got lucky" isn't the best way to help people who do have to adjust the ebrakes
People like me had to play with the adjuster to get the rotor off and it was not fun
@@PTSTUD87 Rust is generally why
Great video! Thanks so much for putting this one out. I just checked out your website and noticed you have a warehouse in my hometown of Littleton MA! Very nice!!
Great work. These videos have really made a difference in my working on my Jeep. Very much appreciated.
I suggest using brake cleaner on not just the rotors, but also the new brake pads and E brake shoes as well.

@@jellosmellotry adjusting the emergency brake shoe via slot in the rear. Bang harder. Try rapid heating or cooling.
@@jellosmellomaybe undo the ebrake ?
When you pump the brake pedal, do you do it when the two brakes are done or after each side ? Thanks

Can Sue rough neck a 37" rim and tire like she did with stock rim and tire. She handled that thang like it was nothing.
honestly lmao. I just removed my 35inchers with minor struggle and I came in to watch this video and I see sue yank that boy off like its a leaf off tree... idk whether to be jealous of her or feel bad about myself😂. prolly both, she's awesome.
I can't rough neck a stock one without feeling it the next day anymore

Sue is the best!
Great video
After bleeding, do I need to add more fluid somehow from the lost fluid? If so, what do I need and how do I do it? Jeep Wrangler 2013 JKU
You should check your master cylinder and add as needed. There are markings on the side.
You don't have to open the bleeder screw before compressing the piston..just remove the brake master cylinder cap
+MonkeyGamer09 Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
Yes, remove the cap is what I do.
I actually disagree with the comment. The reason why you open the bleeder screw and not just the master cylinder cap is to prevent the brake fluid to go into the ABS system. If there is a dirt, it could damage it.
Don't even have to do that if that's what you think. Some believe releasing the old fluid is a good thing to practice. Exposed fluid attracts moisture
Yea dont do that...the video is correct , always open the bleed screw and flush the old fluid out rather than putting reverse pressure on system and running fluid back through the ABS valve and into the system...you should be flushing New brake fluid into the system after a change anyway.
I was wondering why this video was so long and then I started watching and figured it out.
You didn’t have to bleed your brakes.You could of just used a C clamp or other compression tool to push your piston in.

@@damianfarnsworth7474 The reason she did that was to keep the old fluid from being pushed back up into the ABS module.
Thanks shoulda watched this first😊
Great video. Very helpful.
Great video but the Wrangler JK was 07-18. 06 was the TJ/LJ.
Nice work. Good pahts too
rear caliper adapter torque specs is 55 ftlbs (not 77 as you stated)
Which one is it? I’m also getting two different answers it’s either 55lbs or 77lbs has anyone figured out why two different torque specs?
Do you know it's model, sub type and engine size and whether it's heavy duty or standard brakes?
Doing a 2016 jeep sport needed a 13 mm socket not a 15
Excellent video thank you
Note that the 2018 wrangler must be a jk or jku. It was a transition year. They made two models.
I love this woman

When she did the fronts she had a nice caliper press tool, why she use the vise grips in this video?

+Grinch Thanks for checking us out!
can someone link me to that silicon hi temp paste?
Although you DID put on antiseize... and pre spray the rotors... what about the ebrake?
What about it?
Sometimes when I run out of paste I use petroleum jelly. Plus, its waterproof for when I go off-road.
That's what she said
How many mileage was that rear brakes prior to changing it.
Ryan Rommel I’m changing mine this weekend and I’m at 49.5k (2015 JKU). Pretty worn away similar to this demo.
about 30,000 is an average belief
You states the caliper bracket bolts as 15mm and also 13mm. I believe they are 15 mm.
+0verfiend Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
Which pads go where?
Parking brake. It's a parking brake.

depends on the brakes installed on that vehicle
There are heavy duty and standard duty
If you actually watched the video it was crystal clear. Good luck!
Noprene.
You mean NEO-PRENE?
Don’t forget to buy brake fluid. It’s not in the parts list. Maybe some gloves and some shop rags.
Do you still sell the brake hardware kit? What’s the part number?
