    I must be honest; I enjoy this channel.
    In spite of my owning a 1998 ToYOta truck, whose only 'repair' has involved replacing an alternator at 235k (that's 380 Megametres, for all you LR people) I enjoy this channel because it gives me inspiration to work through the less-desirable, Land Rover type of aspects of my own life.

    Have just done my L405 SDV8 pads as well and had the same issue, pins had to be cut out on one side(drivers UK) and drilled. The other side was a delight. Tip on the piston winding tool take the small bar out and just use a 3/8 ratchet in the end.

  • @zaluq
    @zaluq 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Another great video , not to nitpick but with pushing back brake piston i have learned to clamp the brake rubber line and let the pressure out the nipple to keep the system as clean as possible , but I have been pressuring the fluids back to the system myself for 30 years also :)

    • @twig3288
      @twig3288 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Agree, winding calliper pistons back without opening the bleed nipple results in pushing degraded fluid and debris up to the hydraulic modulator.
      As a rule I wouldn’t clamp a flexible brake hose. If you want to block the flow you could depress the brake pedal and prop it down against the driver’s seat with a wooden stick .
      I made an adjustable brake prop by reversing the jaws of a quick clamp so that it opens rather than closes the jaws when the trigger is squeezed.

    • @AJB1
      @AJB1 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@twig3288 Agreed, in that I really don't like clamping hydraulic hoses. I've started opening the bleed nipple when pushing pistons back these days, and the fluid comes out of the nipple rather than going back up to the reservoir anyway, even without clamping.
      I'm not particularly worried about pushing fluid through the system backwards, but figure I might as well do a partial fluid change for no effort, plus it's easier doing that and topping up the fluid if it's low at the end than it is keeping an eye on the reservoir, making sure it doesn't overflow, then sucking some fluid out at the end as it's too high.

  • @plllot9713
    @plllot9713 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    6:30 it's a good practice to loosen the bleed valve before pushing the pistons back. you don't want the old, possibly overheated on many occasions fluid going back to the system through your abs pump (which probably it'll stay there). if you bleed the old fluid from behind the pistons out, you'll introduce some fresher fluid from higher up in the system. that'll slightly improve the quality of the fluid in the calipers.

    I watch your videos because the banter between you both is gorgeous. And I am slightly interested in the details of changing brake shoes :)

    Seems like a missed opportunity to replace the brake fluid when you do a pad change. Love the bench grinder above the polisher setup. Very good use of space!

    Still some useful pieces of information to take from this 'ordinary brake job', which I would say is not ordinary at all because Herr Christian pleased us with another 'basic' drilling and stubborn pin extraction demonstration. Wish I was 1/4 as good at doing that. I was happy to hear someone shares my opinion on febi parts.
    When performing this work, one can find it easier to turn the wheels to gain better access to both parts of the braking system, but often when paying attention to the work, the camera, and what information you're providing to the viewers, it's easy to overlook the obvious. The power of hindsight is amazing. That makes us better.
    All the best from me to all of you!

      No, for this work, turning the wheels was not helpful.👌🙋‍♀️

      @@Vera_and_Christian I see. Context is really important. While it seemed like a good idea behind the screen, in person one can take the best decisions. Good to know and learn from it.

    very steady hands while drilling not to wander off center Excellent job. also i would not use heat on brake caliper can easily boil the fluid or damage the rubber seals.

    The local LR dealer wanted $2500 for the front axle for the same brakes. Our local Indy Euro shop wanted $1800. I did it myself for just over $400 for pads, sensor, and hardware kit. Really is the easiest brake change because the caliper doesn't have to come off. The rear is also quite easy as the caliper piston doesn't have to be screwed back in...just press and go.
