    Excellent video. Thanks for putting it out there.
    I would recommend cleaning the rust off with a brass brush and perform some anti-corrosive measures before reassembling the parts. Just a thought.

    Great video. Thanks for posting. One question/challenge though. I notice you are re-using the caliper bolts (white-out trick instead of toque wrench). I've read on other resources that the caliper bolts are "torque-to-yield," and therefore should not be re-used. Interested in your thoughts on this.

    Good video! I'm doing a similar brake job on my 2015 SS 1LE. Figure it's best to buy all new bolts and torque to specs cuz it's not worth the risk as cheap as the bolts are. Also definitely going to clean and lube everything up appropriately.

    hello i was going to change my rotors for my 2014 camaro. so here's the thing i changed my brakes awhile back so my car starting to shake when I'm hard braking. i took it to a tire place thinking its the alignment or balance but they told me the rotors are no good since i didn't get the rotors resurfaced . is there anything i need to know before changing the rotors?

    I'm on my 3rd set of rotors... Once again after 6k miles the vibration is back. Dealership no longer replacing rotors for free. I have a 2014 SS. I read my rotors just need to be sanded with Garnett paper instead of just replacing every 4 months. Any thoughts? I drive only to/from work & I don't race or do unusual breaking.

    • @asilver1234
      @asilver1234 7 лет назад

      google "brake pad bedding procedure" this needs to be done after you replace the pads and rotors, it will bring the rotors and pads up to temp gradually and allow the pad material to become embedded into the rotor, if you do not do this the rotors eventually wear unevenly which people call "warped rotors" they're not really warped 90 % of the time, they just weren't bedded properly

      Yep all you have to do is push the pins out, (being sure to keep a finger on that spring clip so it doesn't go flying), pull the old pads, insert new pads, done. Did this on all 4 corners last week on my 2012 SS.

    Those caliper bolts are torque to yield. Once you remove them you have to replace them. You are risking your life as well as others. Never reuse torque to yield bolts! That is dangerous.

    • @klowny1969
      @klowny1969  9 лет назад

      Thomas Williams Jr. ok this is a touchy subject...there are great arguments either way ...however this is a subject i know alot in.....torque to yield bolts are stretched to a certain length, if u use a stretch gauge you can see this..the point to what i did by marking the bolts is that you will not stretch the bolt further than it was stretched before..so u are in the safe zone..thanks for watching

  • @BLAZEDALLDATIME
    @BLAZEDALLDATIME 7 лет назад

    Yea never buy drilled rotors only slotted the holes make stress points when it goes through a heat cycle and will crack. Modern brake pads don't build up a layer of gas like older style pads so the holes are pointless. Slotted won't crack and will help reduce heat at the pad
