  • Yep, we're going to fix the brakes on the 60 series Landcruiser today. We're replacing the disc brakes, and the brake pads but mostly just showing you how to change the discs.
    Oh yeah, I also mention that you might want to look at the brake pad change video, so here that is: • How To Change Disc Bra...
    This video is heaps better than a Scotty Kilmer video (that guy is annoying) and ChrisFix doesn't drink enough beers in his tutorials, so we've fixed that too.

    Love the video but unfortunately the best improvement you should have done was installed the LN106 brake calipers instead of old 60 ones... I know original and all but 60 brakes are notorious and this small mod makes it so much safer on the road.

  • @avit24
    @avit24 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    For a real brake upgrade on the front... use hilux, j9, j7 imports, hilux surf, kzj7x. The brake pads have a much larger surface area which will upgrade stopping power. The original 60 front callipers are the same as on a uk lj70. Very surprised you didn't upgrade the calipers!
