Don’t apologize for making a video on a mundane job. I’ll tell you, my truck is new to me and my first diesel. I need to know what to expect BEFORE I tear my truck down. Helps me decide what I can do and what I need a pro for. Thanks for posting!
Thanks for the video! I just got my first diesel and want to upkeep it myself as much as possible 💪 yall posting knowledge on youtube will always be a help.
Ive had the right passenger front side off changed new pads rotors changed both sides for that but squeal is front . First time i did all the wheels did it pretty guick . But now since same problem i do remember i had to pry the pads out of front passenger. I think the guy before me glued the pads to the piston and glued the out board to the caliper or theres air in the line. Anyway you can compress the pistons right after the wheels out of the way with a flat blade screw driver .thank you for video
Always use new clips that come with the brake shoes. Also note, when you are not removing or turning the rotors select a softer pad or at least the factory equivalent pad. A harder pad, or ceramic pad, is closer in hardness to the rotor and will not seat into the rotor resulting in brake noise and or worse, warpage of the rotor. Thankfully on the heavy duty trucks we get a heavy rotor, which can take 2, or sometimes 3 pad changes before they require replacement. Lube those clips, on both sides(edge touching pad, and edge touching the caliper bracket) before install. Makes a difference 10k miles from now, to ensure even pad wear and no noise.
Ive got almost the exact same truck have done my brakes several time and always take the entire assembly off. Never seen it done that way. Will give it a try next time she need from brakes. Thought I learned 1 new trick today. Thatnks dude, now its 2.
Thanks- good job. Watched another video & the guy put the brake grease on pad surface that touches rotor. I saw where you put it on the back of the pads and attachment guides.
1 you never put brake grease on the brake pad. 2 this is not a full brake job 3 rotors need refacing every time new pads are installed 4 you don't ever show people how to service a safety system on vehicle when your clueless your self. BECAUSE ITS WAY MORE THAN INSTALLING NEW BRAKE PADS!
If the rotors are within spec and have no grooving, just do the pads. If it make the difference between doing it yourself or needing a pricy shop to do it go for it. I am 60 now and have been doing brakes for more than 40 of them and I am richer for it. Often people will put it off and run into trouble (see what I did there?) because the cost puts it out of reach. Get your hands dirty and ignore guys like Jon-O. Granted a more complete job is often required and doing rotor and caliper is a little more money but don't let it scare you off

You just showed me how to do it easier I used to take the whole thing off now I'm doing it your way thank you

Thank you 😊! Hopefully this gained a sub out of you!
@@3guysgarage well of course! 😁
Great video. Not a bad idea to remove cap from brake fluid reservoir before compressing caliper.
