I spend all day replacing the entire rear braking system on a 1961 UK Morris Minor, and then, for fun, I watch this :-) Great work guys, I think my brakes do work a little better than yours, and mine are drums... Keep up the great work!
You spent all day replacing drum brakes ? I would spend max 1 hour-30 min and that’s if I have to get additional parts. I have done both including replacing brake lines under 2 hours.
@@dimitar4y they do that already not a full360, but they do have room to move in all directions, the greatest is in the as you would suspect in the spinning parts, but the will move a small amount in auto adjusting fashion,
Use wood as for metro brakes. Yellow birch blocks are cut to length, then the shoes are cut to their final shape and a serial number indicating the cutting date is printed on them. They undergo a double impregnation process: first they are immersed in pressure tanks of peanut oil - it is more tolerant of the high temperatures observed during braking - then they sit in the open air to allow the oil to impregnate them evenly. After a month, they are impregnated with fireproof salt to make the shoe more difficult to burn.

Lignum Vitae is one of, if the, hardest wood known to exist, but it is rather pricey. It needs metalworking tools to work it, but it would be very interesting to see how well it would have performed. The biggest importance with brake parts is to use dissimilar materials to generate the friction, eg in the early days, steel or iron drums/discs versus asbestos shoes/pads. Nice little experiment!
Lignin vitae was used mostly for bearings in the real old days on hard maple shafts with animal fat lube. I work on some old equipment and will occasionally still come across wooden brakes and clutches that are still in service from before brakes switched to asbestos in the 1920s and 30s. There were various woods used. I have a book on it but by memory on iron wheels willow had the highest coefficient of friction. White oak was also common and poplar had the highest coefficient of friction that is little affected by oil on the brake wheel.
@@dickard8275 these days they use composition shoes. Even printed in the side of the car near the trucks. Comp shoes. Whatever it’s made of, it’s some tough stuff. The wheelsets are all steel now, too. I used to hauled them, and got a good look at how they were made.
@1:10 I predict the rotors will be the first to break, because trees do not grow in a way suited to the creation of disks which can take heavy rotational forces.
Over here in montreal, our metro trains from the 60s and 70s use wooden brake shoes.Not sure about our new Azur trains that are replacing them. Wooden brakes work.
loving the brake cam from the inside of the wheel arch did anybody else notice the custom bottom arm setup welded to the original balljoint... love it ! haha
What’s happening is called ablation. Wood was actually used on early re-entry spacecraft because of its insulation properties and the carbon production delays the ablation process. It was obviously a one time use heat shield but it got things done without incident. The wooden re-entry shields were replaced with an engineered material fairly quickly.
You're not feeling a lot of heat in them because they are burning and instantly shedding the material. The hot stuff is on the floor. I'm more impressed that the glued together rotor peices didn't fly apart.
Ha!ha!😁 Garage 54 is SO ATE UP with curiosity about the "what ifs..." friction between wood will usually start a fire. In THIS case y'all are creating charcoal. Love everything you guys come up with.
Dear Garage 54, Please start selling wood brake kits. You can even for a little extra money sell a matching casket to complete the set! Great job as usual.
Hearing a Russian say shite is epic lol Also, that passenger side wheel bearing is FUCKED. The right wood selection would smell heavenly when someone cuts you off in traffic, lmao.
Don't matter if people like it or not. There is people like me that like watching all kinds of stuff like this to see if it works. But you could make those brake rotors if you have a solid block of wood.
Oddly enough this was done over 100 years ago in a more primitive form. on the first horseless carriage. but the story goes that the wife of the man building it took it out for a drive and the breaks were bad so she had added a strip of leather. I think that was a Benz the vary first alto and brake pads.
You're basically machining wood. It doesnt get for the same reason your work piece doesnt get hot while its on the lathe (The chips get hot and then flung off). The stuff thats getting hot here is the stuff thats sitting on the floor smoldering.
Awesome Video Garage 54. I enjoyed watching it. It does amaze me that the wood brakes kinda sorta worked, even if only for 15 to 20 seconds. Also. Off topic here. I don't read Russian so please please correct me if I'm wrong but I'm guessing that the writing on the hood in the dust at timestamp 9:28 says "Wash Me"
no difference. it's not about hardness. brakes turn kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat. that's how all brakes work. so it's physics. only difference would be if a wood has a higher burn temp.
Honestly I am surprised they didn't burst in flames. The only thing I could contribute that to is the extreme speed the wood is moving puts the fire out before it can flame 🔥
Next will be brakes made of aluminium. Followed by brass brakew. Fibre reinforced cement brakes. Plastic brakes. Sod brakes. Brick brakes. Steel brakes. Ice cream brakes. Glass brakes. Flintstone brakes. And so on...
The way the pads break, maybe try making them with the grain so the grains are wearing down and going in the direction of spinning instead of grain towards the rotors and basically rubbing
You should do one where you use clutch disks or clutch material as the rotor, and use solid steel pads, possibly cut the pads from a flywheel? It’d be like the opposite of a conventional braking system..
I did this years ago . Brake pad fell out of a talbot express van managed to limp to a friends and cut some brake pads out some old skirting board glued to the back plates . Got me home once bedded in youd hardly know the difference
That was fun to watch, even though I was expecting fire. Want to try leather brake pads next? That's what Bertha Benz did on her historic automobile road trip. I imagine that would be some foul-smelling smoke.
Should try to fit both compression rings into one groove and leave the oil ring as it is, me and my dad think it will raise compression because the ring gap from the upper ring will be completely sealed off by the ring touching it underneath
Whatever epoxy they used to glue the wood to those rotors is some serious stuff.
Not really. There isn’t much space to come off.
It's Russian epoxy, not no crap that we get here in the states haha
Looked like normal cyanoacrylate
Thougt exactly desame, impressive. 🤘
Youd think the heat would cause it to fail
0:00 is probably the most rapid "heytherefellas" on this channel and for some reason it made me laugh lol

It would be cool if you guys could fit a piston on a rod like a ball joint, giving the piston the ability to spin. Keep it up!!!! Love the content!!
I..... Wow what would that do? It's probably going to wear in the oval anyway and then get stuck in that position?
@sourand jaded just about to mention the cox engine. Steel piston without rings.

Try making your own brake discs from metal epoxy. I wanna see if that would work :D
Excellent suggestion, maybe one side a quality high temp epoxy, the other side a bargain type?
Man that’s a great suggestion!👌😎👍
i love that you guys never stop with the experimenting! Keep being great!!!

That's not entirely true, the aircraft I work on (B747, B767, A330/340) all use Carbon/Carbon brakes where the pads and disc material is the same.
Lignin vitae is self-lubricating. It would last longer but it would likely brake worse than beech.
And trains use iron brake shoes on iron wheels

Try replace front brakes with drums and rear with disc.
Hahaha. That’s creative!
I like that idea.
🤣Or just put the car in reverse
Rear engine, front wheel drive?
Fully DIY brakes, who doesn't love that? That's amazing.
You guys really do the things I always try to imagine in my day dreams
Try making a set of brakes like the old horse drawn wagons where the brakes stop the wheel by contacting the surface of the tire.
This idea would be especially fitting for a Lada!
LOL YESSS DUDE
Or like a A stage coach where the brake literally big literally is a shoe that hits the ground to drag along like an anchor
@@PACKERMAN2077 Why not just a hole in the floor where you literally try stopping the car with your feet?
@@Velktron AYE! AYE!

His face when he first starts moving the car 😅😆😆😆😆 I'm dead
Teak or Ironwood made into pads would be really interesting to see how long they'd hold up.
These guys are my heros! Can't wait to buy some merch, when I get paid.. 🤣
They're turning into carbon breaks
Now they just have to ceramic coat them
So they'll be Carbon ceramic brakes💀💀
You're not feeling a lot of heat in them because they are burning and instantly shedding the material. The hot stuff is on the floor. I'm more impressed that the glued together rotor peices didn't fly apart.
That's why the Flintstones braked with their feet...

Well, I never knew the Russian even use the word "shite" which is pretty much an UK expression. 🤣
15:16 & 18:03 Best moments with Sergey xD
What if you made a rotor out of friction material, and pads out of steel?
Use a clutch disc for the rotor. That would be nice to see!
Everything is friction material.
You could use flywheel and pressure plate as rotor. and throw out bearing.
As brakes😮
Dear Garage 54,
Please start selling wood brake kits. You can even for a little extra money sell a matching casket to complete the set! Great job as usual.
If I had to rate this episode I would give it a ....tree out of tree! Keep up the great work Boys! Greetings from Montreal!
Before watching a second of this, I call a fairly quick brake fire.
which is "happy Russian accident.We are having boycotts here.Peoples want arm AND leg for fire wood"
These are gonna be fire!
Need to see if you can find anti lock Birch for the pads. Lol
what amazes me the most is that the rotor is mad of 2 pieces of wood joined together held with just wood glue and it took all that torture
The car with the wooden brakes :wooden stop😁
Good to hear the shop is back up
Another question solved by fantastici garage 54 .
I ❤ you guys !😗😆
These guys are some of the funniest "What if Guys" to watch!
This is the first video that I could smell!
For the full wood experience, you should use tree sap as brake fluid!
Wouldnt do anything. Basically the same thing as putting glue in the lines. There wouldnt be any flow. Youd apply the brakes and thats it.
Turpentine
Hearing a Russian say shite is epic lol
Also, that passenger side wheel bearing is FUCKED. The right wood selection would smell heavenly when someone cuts you off in traffic, lmao.
Since it's already a hoopty car just smack them into the next millennium, they won't cut you off again!😁
Just kidding, don't do it! 😁
@@deadaccount6135 Damn. Ive been thinking of getting a hoopty just for this reason lmao
Here's a suggestion, see what happens if you fit clutch disc lining to brake rotors and use solid steel brake pads.
Interesting idea!
08:32 love the translation to “shite”!
I have a cool suggestion. So you guys made and inline 6 from two Lada engines. How about making a boxer 4 engine?
Or a V8 :)
Or boxer 8

I just checked my subscriptions and it said he just posted
I'm very happy you got the money situation worked out, especially PayPal. You guys bring top notch entertainment.
The ones in Montreal used peanut oil soaked wood brakes.
Given the disc seemed to hold up okay it would have been interesting to try a regular pad instead of the wooden one.
All I've seen is the thumbnail. This looks GOOD!
8:33 so here i was thinking 'shite' is a british word yet this canadian voiceover guy is saying it from a russian translation.
13:39 “oh look at the brains on you! Give this man a cookie!” 😂😂😂😂
I would imagine the wood glazed over after 1st braking, hence the reason it doesn't have any friction braking.
Wow still filming the conclusion segment with the smoke in the garage was hilarious😂
Don't matter if people like it or not. There is people like me that like watching all kinds of stuff like this to see if it works. But you could make those brake rotors if you have a solid block of wood.
Upgrading the 964 this weekend with a full wood brake kit, 👌.
I would like to see this again only with exotic hard woods
I love how random these guys are with cars 😂 you will never see another TH-cam channel like this 😂😂😂 like wtf
Funniest part was seeing the socks he is wearing (towards the end around 19:00)
I love it how you guys just stand infront of that thing,while smoking the brakes.
RIGHT!!!!! xD
Its all about friction and heat dissipation. Solid wood does not
burn it cokes on the surface. The major problem will be the
friction disc to pad.
I'm fairly sure the translator studied in the UK 🤣
Oddly enough this was done over 100 years ago in a more primitive form. on the first horseless carriage. but the story goes that the wife of the man building it took it out for a drive and the breaks were bad so she had added a strip of leather. I think that was a Benz the vary first alto and brake pads.
this would actually be pretty useful for movie prop cars, on the rear wheels to extenuate a burnout.
Pour alcohol on the rubber for super smokey burnouts, 👌.
I don't know about the wooden brakes, but that glue ain't no joke!
You're basically machining wood. It doesnt get for the same reason your work piece doesnt get hot while its on the lathe (The chips get hot and then flung off). The stuff thats getting hot here is the stuff thats sitting on the floor smoldering.
