The great thing about jeep brakes is you don't need that shit. But upsell it anyway. Just more of a hassle then it needs to be down the road. Not needed at all.
Growing up on a farm in the snowy, muddy, road-salted north east, I learned to love red grease. I had a rule: there can never be enough red grease. We kept a big can of it around with an actual paint brush. If I unthreaded it, I cleaned and greased it. If I disassembled it, it got cleaned and greased. Eventually, you forget what its like to fight with a stuck bolt. 30 minute disassemblies take 3 minutes. Well worth it.
Thank you for that idea, I'm doing a build on a 1949 dodge pickup that's been daily driven since the day it was bought until about 5 years ago when it began to sit so EVERYTHING is rusty and stuck. When putting it back together I'll have to remember the bucket and brush
I actually like the 'mistake', I watch these videos to prepare mentally to do a project, and a reminder that each action needs patience or it will cost me, is a good thing!
As someone who owns three jeep 4.0s (XJ, XJ, TJ) I am so glad the algorithm gods landed your video in my feed the other day. Loving watching all these parts I recognize and have worked on for years getting the love they deserve.
Nice rebuild, I recommend a bit of anti-sieze compound on the threads of the bleeder screws though. Plus, rebuilding your calipers does ensure it's done right, so don't apologize for rebuilding something especially when the stuff made/rebuilt today is lower quality.
I usually buy new coated ones for two vehicles. Road salt does a number on the calipers, eh? And thanks for reminding me. I gotta add anti-seize on my caliper bleeder screws.
I believe teflon tape may be a better option than anti-seize. If you're going to use grease, use brake grease, because it's safe if it enters the brake system.
Loved watching this one. When you missed the dust cap seal and re-blasted and re-coated the powder proved you actually care about the quality of your content. Great work!! I feel like I am ready to do the same to my brake calipers!!
Excellent video, thank you so much for keeping your mistakes and the solution!! Far too many youtubers need the "perfect" video and then everyone that watches the video has no idea what mistakes can be made. I stumbled across your channel the other day, subscribed, and been watching through your restoration of this vehicle.

Your videos are so clean and without any BS, showing the mistakes will give everyone watching a heads up and hopefully they don't make the same.
Wow, a lot of arm chair mechanics here! First, great job! I had a caliper I had to replace on a daily driver ASAP. Got one at a typical parts place that was painted grey. Bought a rebuild kit for other side for future use, cause that's they way I am. The "new" grey one locked up 6 months later. Took it apart, and found grey paint over spray in the bore about half way. Must be epoxy paint because the brake fluid did not remove it. But it swelled enough to jam the piston. It did take 120psi on my compressor to remove it, and wow, did it pop when it let go! Removed paint width brass wire brush, used the rebuild kit intended for other side, and fixed. Now, no where near what you did, just a driveway rebuild. But "new" parts suck sometimes.
looks great but do recommend torquing the brake line to spec because those copper crush washers can only crush a certain way once. and they like their specific torque, definitely recommend a type of brake grease on the slide pins. but overall looks good!
When connecting the brake hose line you put the copper crush washer between the hose fitting and hex bolt. It goes between the hose fitting and the caliber body to seal the connection. Of course when you fill the system with fluid and hit the brakes you'll have fluid all over the place until you fix that connection. Read the manual. Also no thread sealer on the bleeder ports, they will leak within a month of driving.
Fun fact...the Dana 30 calipers CAN be installed bass ackwards....left to right right to left....leaving a nice bubble of air trapped above the bleed screw.......took me three days to figure that one out.....
That was great to watch, I'm glad you decided to leave the mistake in there, we're all humans and we all make mistakes from time to time. Hope you don't mind me adding this but I got a tip that might save yourself out someone else a head ache, when using the compressor to blow out the pistons put a thin piece of wood in between the piston and the caliper, as they can come out at some velocity and someone's the piston shatters/chips. If you're reusing them it's costly and for god's sake keep your fingers out the way of the piston.
I've never used that stuff, nor needed it, just put some grease in the pins and under the clips to prevent rust jacking. Never found the anti noise grease as needed.
Another excellent video, well edited and no talking or music to ruin the proper sounds. Thank you again, I watch all your videos. Does anybody know what that fog painting technique is? I've never seen this before, It seems very effective, Jim.
@@aerialrescuesolutions3277 I know that powder coating seems to be popular for calipers but I don't know if it handles high temps better than regular high temp paint. Powder coating is supposed to be tougher than regular paint though.
Can you do a “tools and techniques” video? I want to see how you have those long shaft wire brushes set up with the hose to keep them together and prevent scratching.
Good job ! Phenolic piston, I didn't see that for a while ! 13:33 why is the pad looking not centered ? I hope is only a visual effect due to camera angle.
Pappy use to say; "Boy don't be scared. You'll never learn a damn thing if you're afraid to make a mistake." Thanks Pappy. RIP. Good job with this btw. You learned a lot here.
The copper washer u tap the bolt that hold the break line called a mash seal it can leak if you don’t seal it properly. Just tighten the bolt don’t usually seal them. Tap bolt then tight good to go.

So jealous of how well your blast cabinet works. What size compressor do you have? Gravity feed? Glad to see the rest of truck magically restored itself while you were doing the calipers. Such a nice feeling to make something so crusty clean enough to eat off of.
When you rebuild you own calipers, you know what you end up with. When you buy calipers, you have no idea whether they used crap parts or seals. I rebuild my calipers using OEM rebuild kits so I end up with OEM quality calipers. I've compared rebuild kits from rock-auto to OEM and the OEM kits have much better rubber in the gaskets and seals.
I've never taken a brake rebuild this far, but there are times where rebuilding is your only option. Being a glutton for punishment and driving older German cars, this is definitely something I've had to do a couple of times...
I'd have soaked them in citric acid prior to disassembly. Two days in strong, hot citric acid bath gets rid of all the rust, but doesn't penetrate any seals. ;) Although If I know my cylinders are rotten, I'll disassemble them before soaking in acid bath.
Just did this with my quad calipers on my tundra a month ago. Successfully rebuild two out of four. One was rusted too bad and had to be replaced. The other got rebuild and was the final one to be reinstalled. When I went to bleed the brakes the bleeder screw snapped off in the caliper…then the screw extractor snapped off in the bleeder. So that got replaced with a new caliper 😂
If you feel like a challenge, try rebuilding Lexus rear calipers with opposing pistons plus retaining clips. You'll reach new depths with your language though 😁😁😁
I wouldn't say that, there were some calipers that didn't have a metal ring to hold them in place. The ones I thought were hard to get the dust boot seated were the GM dust boots from the very late 60's through the 80's or so. Had a machinist friend of mine see me having difficulty installing a GM dust boot and he asked if he could borrow a boot and a couple weeks later, he had made a driver for me to install them.
Put some copper grease around the threads of the bleeder screw, it will stop fluid coming out around the side when bleeding the brakes and will stop it seizing for next time.

I also have 3 non-XJ videos 90% done that I want to release soon as well that will probably come out first. I've been banking a lot of footage and editing that hasn't been released yet
@@RestorationStation awesome! can't wait to see the new vids. I had a lifted 2 door 1988 XJ when I was a kid and I really miss that thing so its great to see someone keeping one alive and making it better than jeep did
I' ve wasted many hours rebuilding calipers with repair sets. Two weeks later they started to jam again.. New set for 100€, 1 hour work and problem was gone once for all.
I've been turning wrenches now for 20 yrs and have never had to put pookie on the brake pads to keep them from making noises. Not saying it doesn't work. Just never had that problem.
Mate,, service data might say different,,, swap the pads to the other side. Worst case scenario, the bottom bolt comes out of the caliper and slow the bottom of the caliper to contact the wheel. With the pads clipped in at the bottom, this can’t happen.
Well I was going to call you a psychopath for the red rtv looking rtv but apparently it's called disc brake quiet. Idk if the sound is meant to be asmr and I'm missing the point but it is. Great vids, I look forward to the Jeep completion.
He’s rebuilding a Jeep, caliper or Chrysler. One thing he should’ve done is fix where the caliper pads sit, it has grooves and that’s why the pads get stuck. If you don’t fix it you will go through pads yearly.
Where do you find the hardware and seals to replace the old equipment ? Doing something similar for my project and am having a hell of a time finding the parts to replace.
But it's a bit dangerous to take it out with compressed air (as you might see, how it pops out with force). Rather pressing brakepedal several times, when brake cylinder is out on disc. 🙂
The ONLY advantage, a slim one at best, when doing your own you have control over the quality of the components going back in. To do a proper job, you need a cylinder hone and a sandblaster.
@@ShainAndrews No shit Sherlock! But that cylinder needs to be clean so you don't introduce contaminants into the brake system or cause the piston to cock inside the cylinder. A brake hone (yeah, that's an actual tool) is the quickest way to get it done.
Guys... It's not RTV. It's CRC Disc Brake Quiet.
Im not sure what world we live in where people dont know what CRC brake quiet looks like.
It bonds the brake pad to the caliper and that changes the total resonate frequency of the assembly. The brake pad is bonded to the caliper with a easy to disassemble glue that requires the brake pad to now vibrate the entire caliber before it squeals, so it wont squeal with braking vibration.
Yes you can use grease. Synthetic, of course, purple, black, orange, rots seals, go on and on, wives tales up the ass, they are applied to do the same job, just stop squeals, and your preference is yours and don't freaking matter to the next guy.
Personally I like brake quiet on the pads as once its set, water, rain, etc cant wash it away. Ever look at the back of old pads? They rust because water got in there, and no amount of grease will keep it out unless you are changing pads every year, and that means you drive like a dick anyway and no one cares what you think.

Install the piston dust boot first then place piston against boot and use your air. Dust boot will surround piston for easy install.
