The only issue I have with this video and EVERY other one doing these... is the fact that no one shows how big of a PITA it is to get those pins back in. Everyone seems to skip this process, and it's super important to understand that this is a huge flaw in this design IMHO. The tolerances are so tight between the net holes in the caliper and the "may as well be net" holes in the pads (angled for tight fit), that there is no room for being off even a little bit. You need to file away a little of the pad holes to get those pins in.
Thanks for the help. I wish I would have watched sooner. I have break fluid leaking. Warning do not remove all the bolts when removing the break caliper, you will leak break fluid
Each pad has 4 spots to be greased. On the caliper are channel ways that should be cleaned of rust and dirt and carefully greased (not to get any grease on the rotor or friction material on the pads)

Great video brother very helpful and easy to follow along with, thanks for posting! Hope you’re all healed up now.

What happens if you do, do you have to bleed the brake

Thank you for the video!
No music because we cant hear you. Thanks for the video,
How would you go about changing the front rotors?
