    Thanks for the tip about the brake line. Pretty sure that was probably my whole problem in the first place. Probably didn't even need to replace the caliper but since I already had it lol. Thanks for your videos. I've fixed this van more than once with your help.

    It should of course be noted that the 5th gen vans have 2 different brake sizes available starting with the mid-gen refresh, with the larger variant being roughly 1" larger and are dual piston front calipers instead of single. To be specific, small fronts are 302mm, large are 330mm, small rear are 305mm, large are 328mm. The larger brakes require the 17" wheels not the 16". The ones in the video are the smaller version, they have the bleeder and banjo bolt at about a 90° angle relative to each other, the large brake rear calipers have them almost parallel to each other, thus there are also 2 different sets of rear brake hoses with slightly different bends at the caliper banjo bolt end to compensate.
    Also I like how you ran enough new fluid through to get rid of the darkened old stuff, new being almost clear.

    • @YouWrench
      @YouWrench  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, great tips very welcome! There are indeed two caliper types, so worth checking in advance which you have. The basic process is the same, but parts are different. Thanks for sharing! :-)

    Just a suggestion the stainless shims for the pads if you want to grease under them to slow rust build-up fine but not on them as dirt abd dist and brake dust or other debris can stick to the grease or lube and cause it to clog or wedge the pads. Regular maintenance such as every 10 thousand miles or so just remove the pads and clean those shims and make sure slider pins still function well.

    Thank you so much for your videos. They have been very helpful. I can't get over how many people here aren't paying attention to the links and references to the separate videos you've made. One concern, though - we twisted off one of the new banjo bolts (hollow bolt between the brake hose and the caliper), then looked into it more. You refer to 35 ft-lbs., but we've seen a few other references elsewhere of 18 ft.-lbs.

    Go just ahead of the drivers rear wheel. There is a splitter/evener that turns 1 cable into two. Make a softener from a few layers of a ceral box. Pull down on the cable to get slack and Vicegrip the softener around cable so it can't retract to hold slack in the cable.
    This gives lots of slack at both rear calipers. Use needlenose to squeeze tabs and can unhook rears in about 15 seconds and you are not fighting against a spring.

    that banjo bolt torque setting correction should be overlaid on the video, it's easy to miss if you don't read the description near the bottom or far enough down the comments... that feeling when you're tightening and then it goes loose again and it's 9pm in the dark outside in light rain... not so great.

  • @davidnelson4783
    @davidnelson4783 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video! Very detailed and informative - you really did a nice job!
    Two questions:
    1. If you're doing both driver & passenger side rear calipers, would you bleed the brake lines out 1 at a time, as you do each one? Or wait until you replaced both brake lines and then try to do them together?
    2. Does the caliper bracket need to be replaced if you replace the caliper? Or do you just recommend it for some reason? I guess I see that the auto part stores sell the bracket with the caliper, so I suppose you'd just do both if you get them both.

    • @YouWrench
      @YouWrench  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you!
      1) Do them one at a time, and check out our video on how to bleed the brakes on the GC to see the correct order, and be sure to start with the correct one first as per the order in the brake bleed video.
      2) No, you can use the old caliper bracket, but as most calipers come with them (i.e. no extra cost) it seems a waste to leave the old rusty one on.
      Hope that helps!

    • @macfady2181
      @macfady2181 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      As noted, most calipers will come with new brackets, and new guide pins. The main reason to replace the bracket is that a lot of times you'll have at least one significantly corroded or frozen guide pin.

  • @BWeezy-sw1wy
    @BWeezy-sw1wy 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I’m doing mine now after only going a year with ceramic pads and anti seize all up in my slide pins. Had a pin freeze up and the outer pad was down to the backing and grinding the rotor.
    My question is regarding the copper washers for the brake line to the caliper. My calipers came with 2 but my originals are pretty stuck on the hose side.

    • @YouWrench
      @YouWrench  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, these rear calipers can be a real pain and really don't last as long as they should!! For the slide pins ideally try not to use anti sieze (copper grease) as it's not designed for this. You should really use a moly grease, something that is designed for CV Joints is ideal as it's designed for metal on metal lubrication and safe to use with rubber boots. This process is not shown in this video as this is replacing with a brand new caliper, but you can check out our brake rotor change video for more details on that if needed.
      With regards the copper washers, yes should be one each side of the banjo connector as shown in this video and they should not be stuck, especially as they are copper. Once the bolt is out the wahsers should be easy to remove. If not, you may have to get a bit more heavy handed with them. Worst case you could TRY and leave the one side on and test it a lot once fitted to check for leaks, just be prepared that if you do get a leak then you'll have to remove and refit again.
      Or do you mean they are stuck on the hose, rather than the caliper? If so, replace the hose. It's always a good idea to replace to hose, as covered in the video.
      Best of luck!!

    How did you get the piston to push against the pad? I have been bleeding and bleeding and bleeding. I can't get the piston to move towards the pads. Its a brand new caliper too

    • @YouWrench
      @YouWrench  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey there! That's odd. Did you make sure to close off the bleed valve on the caliper after bleeding? Once the system is closed again, pressing the brake pedal will move the piston. If the valve remains open it will just let more fluid out and the piston will never move. Ensure it's closed and gently pump the brake pedal a few time. Hope that helps!

    I have a question. I have replaced the rear caliper on my 2012 grand caravan and I am having leaks around the brakeline where it attaches to the caliper. I don't want to over tighten. If I have it tight enough does that mean the brakeline is going bad? I have cleaned it up

    • @YouWrench
      @YouWrench  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey there! Where the flexi hose attaches to the caliper, you should ensure to use a new washer if reusing the old hose on a new caliper, and also to ensure it is torqued up to the correct spec. It sounds like it's either not torqued up tight enough, or you have a bad washer? That would be what I'd be checking first anyway. Hope that helps! Best of luck!

    now that I look online it’s 90-120 inch pounds for a banjo bolt… not to exceed 144inch pounds….that’s 12ft lbs…..35ft/lbs is 420 inch pounds …….you might want to edit that………I should have known….
    Now canadian tire does not have one …Saturday evening …hope brake line crimped until Monday does not leak….
    That’s how it goes for me …lol

    why does my caliper has no spring?? Grand caravan 2015, both rear sides no spring, the caliper looks the same as this video as far as I can tell, but the spring is NOT there. Given both sides have no spring, it DOES look like no spring from day one, but it is so weird. Anyone else noticed the same?

    not a bad video BUT...putting a new caliper on old brake disc and pads is a crime !!!! - they are so cheap - just replace them too !!!! a set of 2 discs and 4 pads is literally 80 bucks online

    • @YouWrench
      @YouWrench  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed! I think it's explained in the video, but this was only temporary whilst waiting for the new discs and pads to be delivered. That said, not everyone can afford to replace everything at the same time (remembering that the $80 you mentioned is on top of the price of the caliper), but if you can it's definitely good practice to put everything on nice and fresh with the new calipers, especially as these cars do indeed have generally pretty cheap parts :-)
