    Thank you. I didn't know I had to sping the piston on the rear calipers. Im glad you posted the video. If I kept trying to force it I may have dameged the caliper 😊

    Thank you, the video was very helpful. I did my wife's Explorer yesterday. Cranking that piston back in is the hardest part of the job. Trying to hold the caliper in one hand and cranking the tool with the other is difficult, especially at the start. I miss the old days when a C-Clamp was all you needed.

    Nice job on the Explorer, Jim.
    I recently did the front of my 11 Ford Flex. I noticed that grease was used on the surface between the Rotor and the Hub. There was very little rust in there.

      I need help Flushing or bleeding the brakes on my 2012 ford explorer!! Any tips ?? I’ just picked up the master cylinder from the junk yard from another explorer compatible with mine. Anyways I can’t seem to find the correct information before making the decision.

    Being a retired mechanic I watch these videos out of nostalgia, this is a great instruction and I agree when you years of experience you have the appropriate Bolt and Nut Torques imbedded in your elbows. But I would recommend DIY and weekend mechanics have a torque wrench. Great job sir. 🇨🇦

    First of all thanks for the great video. My only question is, shouldn't you use copper grease and anti-seize when working on brakes?

    Thanks for the video! I also use some heat for those stubborn T40 bolts that hold the rotor or cut a line with a cutoff wheel and use a impact hammer to knock it loose because I hate drilling them out.

      Great video Jim. I didnt know to grease the face of the piston. I think you should have put anti-sieze on the axle flange so it comes off easier the next time. Sometimes the rotors weld themselves to the flanges and are very difficult to remove.

      The Torx just hold the rotor in place until the rim is put .

      You actually do need the tool for these brakes. This piston has to turn and push at the same time in order to go in. Not like other vehicles where it just has to push in.

    • @1unv312
      @1unv312 5 месяцев назад

      ​@cuznl3343 I don't think you do. If it twists to go in that means it would have to have something to twist it while the brakes are being applied in order for them to work right? I had a car with these pistons and I just used the old brake pad and a c-clamp.

  • @250zxSkeeter
    @250zxSkeeter Год назад

    Great video but what a piece of crap engineering from Ford on the caliper! How many years have pistons not needed any special tools other than a C clamp or pry bar and old pads! You did a good job explaining this process though.
