Porsche 911 (87): Restoring The Brakes (incl. Hand Brake)
ฝัง

- This film is about the restoration of the brakes of my Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 from 1987.
The rear braking system consisting of brake and hand brake was disassembled down to the single screw. All parts have been restored or renewed and zinc-plated where required. The adjustment of the hand brake / parking brake is described in detail.
The production of this film was supported by JP Group Classics from Denmark who gave me some of the spare parts for free.
It was also supported by matoopa.com, my trusted shop for classic car - related tools.

Right at the end… the comment about the lower caliper bolt and no way to torque it!!! That’s the exact reason why I watched this video lol. I just got my calipers off last night! Oh boy are my pistons stuck something bad, looks like it’s torch time lol
my hairstylist loved this video.
I have the same brake caliper on my 1974 Alfa Romeo they are great brakes, the biggest problem is having the hard pipe in stead of a flexible house is every time you have to take them off you have to find something to block the pipe to stop the fluid from leaking and having to bleed the system after would.
The crack about the Laws of Friction early on in the video was priceless!!!
I find grabbing springs with wire cutters good. You dont sqeeze hard enough to cut them but they grip really good.
Great video - thanks for sharing your knowledge. I’m currently doing this job on my own ‘87 but also found that the rear wheel bearings and one driveshaft were shot so that job comes first. Great idea to assemble the handbrake assembly off the car - I hadn’t thought of that and it will make it much easier
“Can an honest person accept it looking shabby?” No sir an honest person can not 😀

Fantastic work on restoration of the brakes

Wonderful - binge-worthy material.
Just love the attention to detail as usual
Realy loving it and learning here. So clear so ZEN 🧘🏽♂️thanks for sharing!
I so enjoy watching these videos, thank you!
Love your channel. I learn a lot watching you work. Thank you! Your attention to detail is wonderful. Nothing wrong with that.
A joy to watch good craftsmanship!
Your attention to detail is some of the best content on the internet for 911's. You have helped me fall back in love with my slightly neglected 911SC and have inspired me to tackle getting it back to its former glory and then some!!
Thanks as always for my Tuesday afternoon moment of Zen. This should help offset the pure panic that the current 911 prices are giving me.
Great work on the brake refurb - nice attention to detail in repainting the dust shields .
