I have a 22 with 9K. Dealer said out of warranty. Got the Car Quest stuff and went to work (seriously expensive).Two things. First, my rotor was held on by an O-ring or Rubber ring at the axle. After banging on that thing for ten minutes, I couldn't get it off but it felt loose. That's when I noticed the ring. Used a pick to get it off and the rotor slid out easy. The second thing is that I don't think 10mm is the right size. It was the biggest I had and did the job, but there's way to much play. I had to bang the tool off after final tightening. Thanks for the vid.
You're welcome, bolts sizes can vary from year to year, I would double check with your dealer a 2022 Durango would still have factory warranty three-year 36,000 bumper-to-bumper, and five-year 60 powertrain and why would it need brakes at 9000 miles.
Dealer said brakes are a wear item warranty good for one year from date of purchase. Needless to say, that dealer just lost all any business from me. Smooth as silk on the new rotors. Tried to get OEM rotors resurfaced, not enough material left when mic'd. What's that tell you about the quality? 9K miles.@@TheAutoTeacher
Good Info - worth noting that there are multiple (3 front and 2 rear) rotor options with these (at least with the 2017 I worked on today). Be sure to check rotor size (330mm and 350mm options as well as caliper bracket code 0317 and 0328 both have 350mm rotor options). Rear rotors are vented or unvented. 330mm front rotors will have unvented/solid rear rotors). Worth checking before hand as I had a 330mm rotor for a 350mm job unfortunately.
On a 2016 dodge Durango RT the allen key was 11mm or 7/16 and the caliper bracket bolts are a big external torx but a 16mm 12 point socket will work. Also has the 350mm rotor 13.8 inches across with heavy duty brakes
Most front rotors are larger diameter than rears, but not all, since some rears have emergency brake shoes acting inside the hat part of rotor. The auto parts store should give you the proper part for your application. Just make sure that you match them up when removing the old rotors.
Awesome and easy to follow. I’m finding that mine is an 11mm hex head rather than 10 as well. Save yourself time and order online. NOBODY has 11mm just laying around
On all these videos no one mention about the rotor size or the brake pads size, I went to AutoZone and O'Reilly there's three different for the pad in the rotors for the Durango GT 2018
That's why you give them year, make and model of your vehicle and options when ordering the parts. There's always going to be variations on parts depending on your vehicles specifications V6,V8, tow package etc.
Like the video but my front brakes on my 2014 dodge Durango use 12 mm Allen watch the video before I started working on it. I had a 10 mm I had to run out and buy a 12 mm at AutoZone
It's the same basic principle, but the rears don't turn out to make it easier to work on. The front pads and rotors are usually bigger because majority of a vehicles braking is done with the front brakes, so those pads will wear faster than the rears. So to answer your question no the front and rear are not the same. We actually have a video on the rear brakes if you search our channel!
If you're tires are in good condition and properly inflated, I would next check the front ball joints and tie rod ends. What are the miles on the vehicle?
@@TheAutoTeacher I just finished mine. I opened it when I compressed the pistons and closed the cap when I pressed the brakes to make them tight. I hope I didn't do anything too wrong. Brakes seem to be working good
Thank you so much for that video. It was straight to the point with no story telling or gibber, jabbering.
That’s the goal. You’re welcome!

My 2012 durango citadel uses an 11mm or 7/16ths Allen. Just a heads up that other years may differ slightly. Thanks for the video. It was helpful!
You’re welcome!
Yes, I just bought a 10mm and it's too small 🤦🏾♂️
@@kenooks same. And I have the GT I definitely needed an 11mm
Same for a 2013
Same for a 2016 RT

Thank you, that's why it's important to use your vehicles Vin number when possible to ensure getting the proper parts .

Thanks for the tip!
Is that for all 2016 rts? Im about to order it all and dont wanna order the wromg set and realize after its to late
How do you know which rotor is front or back in sizes
Most front rotors are larger diameter than rears, but not all, since some rears have emergency brake shoes acting inside the hat part of rotor.
The auto parts store should give you the proper part for your application. Just make sure that you match them up when removing the old rotors.

Thank you .
Thanks now I can change my own
Glad it helped!

Excellent video, good visuals , thanks for sharing !
You’re welcome!
Is the process for the rear pretty similar?
Similar process, but you might need a scan tool if your vehicle is equipped with a rear electronic parking brake.
Any need for the O ring that is on the hub?
Not really sure what O-ring you're referring to, let me know the time on the video I can best see the o-ring you're talking about.
It just keeps the rotor in place. I reused mine when I put new rotors on my Durango today
What a pro nicely done 😌
Thank you!
Like the video but my front brakes on my 2014 dodge Durango use 12 mm Allen watch the video before I started working on it. I had a 10 mm I had to run out and buy a 12 mm at AutoZone
Sorry about that. Bolts can vary on vehicles by year, production run, and options ordered. This was a 2015
Thanks 🙏🏾
You’re welcome .
What size are the caliper bolts
10 mm Hex Bit Socket
What tool was that you used to push the pistons back?
Brake Caliper Press Tool, listed in the tools used in the video description
Thanks very much!!
You’re welcome!
I hope this isn't a silly question but was is different about the rears? Or are they all the same? Great video by the way!
It's the same basic principle, but the rears don't turn out to make it easier to work on. The front pads and rotors are usually bigger because majority of a vehicles braking is done with the front brakes, so those pads will wear faster than the rears. So to answer your question no the front and rear are not the same. We actually have a video on the rear brakes if you search our channel!
@@TheAutoTeacher Fantastic. Thank you so much!
What did you use to clean the rotors ?
Brake clean, it's listed in the parts in the video description
I changed my rotors and brake pads and my Durango still shakes when braking
If you're tires are in good condition and properly inflated, I would next check the front ball joints and tie rod ends.
What are the miles on the vehicle?
Do you open the cap on the master cylinder?
No
@@TheAutoTeacher I just finished mine. I opened it when I compressed the pistons and closed the cap when I pressed the brakes to make them tight. I hope I didn't do anything too wrong. Brakes seem to be working good
Is bleeding brakes not a thing anymore? I've watched like 5 of these 20** durango front brake videos and not 1 person bled the brakes.
As long as the hydraulic system isn't opened, bleeding the brakes is not required.
