At 6:47 there's grease on the friction side of the brake pads, you really want to avoid getting any type of lubricant on that part of the pads, or on the discs.
Why? Please explain you statement for knowledge reasons if you may for the sake of why would it matter. Thank you for yout comment and thank you really
@@jasaulyeldell_jsqualley3125Those are the surfaces that are braking the car. It's a bit like putting grease on the soles of your shoes, it's reducing the gripping force. The grease would usually be applied to the parts of the pads that need to slide within the caliper (the channels that the pads fit into at the top and bottom), also the slide pins that hold the two parts of the caliper together. The grease that was applied should have eventually burned off and the brakes should be fine, but initially they could have been a bit dangerous.
Very helpful, thank so much for dedicating your valuable time to explain detail by detail, this video helped me understand the process of installing new brakes. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks, you explained this clear and understandable, best brake work video for chevy spark breaks on TH-cam! 👌👏
Drum brakes!? What! Omg! Can't believe any car after 1999 would use drum brakes! Insane!
Im on my third set of pads for front and my drums still good cost vs effectiveness🤷 and the car 2,200 pounds🤦
By far, the best brake video for my little green monster!
For future reference, there's a threaded hole you can run an all thread screw or rod into the drum and it pushes the drum away and off.
Excellent job. Thanks.
Pull the wheel rear hub off before removing shoe assembly . Makes it 100 times easier. When re installing hub set bearing pre load to spec.
A whole brake job one handed.

@ 4:35, the top of the 2nd pad, that clip almost looks like a wear chirper, the way it extends out with the pad !

Hello
Have you replaced the drive belts ? I can’t find a video
How do I get the drum back on, I can't get it because the new shoes have to much material on them and it can't fit
The adjustment trigger spin it til the shoes gets closer to the center
Get someone to hold the camera for u.
need loose pressure first......looks you need disk rotor cutting,,
