    Shout out to all the fathers (mine included) that taught their children how to change their own brake pads and oil. SO much money saved over the years!
  • @frostbyte1134
    Be sure to inhale the brake cleaner fumes to enhance your experience
  • @MrPoppyDuck
    Do not forget to clean and regrease the caliper slide pins with brake grease if you live in the rust belt.
  • I don't know how many videos of yours I have watched. My dad was a garage mechanic I had the pleasure of working with him for 5 years until his passing in 1971. He helped hundreds of people get their car fixed, sometimes for little or nothing, just to get someone where they needed to go. Thanks for your service. Robert

    Scotty gets it done but there is (was) some finer detail points missed! Tip: I often use the old inner pad to push Caliper Piston back in so as not to scar the piston with Pliers Teeth.
  • @mc4277
    I've always used a C clamp to push the calipers back in. Never had a fancy pair of channel locks. 😅
  • Its always good practice to pull and wipe the pins and apply new silicone paste. Sometimes these are stiff or even seized.
  • @MrPoppyDuck
    Also replace the brake hardware and apply brake grease to the pads where they contact the caliper so the pads do not stick.
  • @bobmcl2406
    Up here in thr Glorious People's Republic of Canuckistan, that original front rotor would have been consider pristine
  • @TheWilferch
    If you're only changing pads....no need to remove both the top and bottom 14mm bolts.....just remove the lower one.....loosen the top...and SWING the caliper up and out of the way ( tie down). You have all the access you need to remove and reinstall pads.
  • So you didn’t wanna tell us, the locker was in the glove box after looking all over the back 😂😂😂
  • @Icepick7484
    Thanks again Scotty, not quite as easy for us rookies but, definitely attainable and well worth the savings.
  • @timjones2999
    I would have never pushed the piston back in like you did. I have seen them get cockeyed, snap in two, bend. At the very least if I had to use channel locks I would have used the old pad across the piston so I could get in the middle of the piston of course I have the correct tools. Damn nice job Scotty.
  • @coburn_karma
    Have to pump the brakes before starting the car.............put a big sign on your steering wheel so you don't forget.
  • @wtaylorg
    Good advice. Service places are always saying replace the rotors when you get a brake job. They just want the part markup. Scotty is always straight up honest.
