When I searched for this video, I did not know I would get everyone of my questions answered, and more!! Extremely technical video explanation!! Well done Sir Thank You!! 🙏 👍
Hey thanks for the video. How does one know if the rotors need "turned"? I don't have a tool and probably don't required new rotors. thanks in advance.
Does your pedal pulsate when you are braking? That's a tell tale sign you need new rotors or need them turned. You won't be turning them at home. And 90% of shops don't have brake lathes anymore. The other thing to look for is overall thickness. You can tell if they're heavily worn if there is a very noticeable ridge on the outmost rim of the rotor. Min. thickness will be etched on the rotor somewhere but may not be readable. And if you don't have a tool to measure them its pointless information to you anyways.
Can you compress both pistons on one side at a time without hurting the caliber or do you have to compress both sides of caliper at the same time? Planning on just removing old pads and sliding in new ones without unbolted caliper.
Can you replace the springs with a stainless steel wire wrap? Are the springs actually required or are they there just to hold everything together just like a piece of wire would?
So what was the caliper bolt torque specs? It wasn't at the end of the video or description as said at 5:59. Knowing what thread pitch the rotor forcing bolt is would help, nobody mentions it.
I purchased the PowerStop brakes from Amazon for my 21 trd sport. It says it comes with shims. Do I still need to keep the OEM ones and put them on as well?

Merci beaucoup pour les informations.
Looks simple enough. I'll try changing my breaks this weekend.
Thanks for the video.
Great video simple and quick
Thanks for wrench sizes especially….gonna do this in a neighbors garage and taking the right tools the first time will be a real time saver
I was able to replace the pads following the instructions. Thanks again.

Thank you for the info. It really helped.
Great video. Thanks for the help. 😎👍
Great tutorial thanks!!!
The tool you linked isn’t the one shown. Is the one you used a Lisle?
Is this the same as the 4x4? How many miles for an average break job?

Awesome thanks was able to do mine with your video

90 ft/lb
I used a breaker bar for the 17 mm caliper bolts since I don’t have air power tools, worked out well.
Will compressing the pistions one at a time damage the caliper ?
It will make the others pop out potentially. Then yes the caliper will be damaged
Do you need a scan tool to reset the senosrs?
what is the torque setting for caliper bolts?
91ft/lb
Great video thanks

Put the OEM ones in a Ziploc and keep them for the future. You may someday want to go back to Toyota OEM. You don't / never double shim a set of pads.
@@GEARMOAUTO thank you.
Where did you get the caliber compression tool?
Should be linked
What are the torq specs for caliper bolts

Do you have a part number on the pads 2019 Tacoma
Torque specs for caliper bolts?
