Thank you for the video and all the information that you provide. I would really like to tell you thank you very much has been a big help to understand. This breaks when I have drove drums 90% of my Trucking career. Thank you very much.
Was great ! I was lost today never dealt with one. The adjuster was frozen would turn either way an i brake the hub tool. Now i need to find out how to free up the adjuster an guide pins
I have a question on this I have a Volvo with desk brakes they only last for a year they are not wearing off. They just cracking all around the routers and I have to replace them every year.
So far I have 250,000 miles and I'm still on my first set of both pads and rotors and the pads are about half way worn and there doesn't look to be any wear on the rotors so far. Of course your mileage may vary.
Great video. My only criticism is the presenter should take a few doses of oxypowder to remove some of the digestive inflammation. Other than that very good contribution
this is a bad system never manufactured in the truck system for many reasons # 1 the price # 2 they run out very quickly # 3 the discs are very expensive involves a lot of expense for everything
Its expensive because is not popular maybe. But I will pay extra in order to have the peace of mind that I have more stoping power when I need. It is beyond comprehension as to why drum brakes are still being used in the trucking industry. The one job of a braking system is to convert kinetic energy into heat, and drum brakes are about if not the worse solution for getting rid of heat. Drum brakes should be illegal to be equiped in any new truck and a deadline put in place for older trucks to convert, maybe today you will not have a trucker facing a lifetime in jail and 4 people dead. We are not in the 50s were trucks carried 10K pounds at 15mph, we have theses rigs doing 70mph with 80K pounds, its time we bring the truck braking systems in the USA to this century
@@loweskydoleo1332 I have a lot of respect for most Trucker's .I would have to put most blame on the car drivers . When I'm driving my DP RV sometimes it's like they want you to hit them in so many ways unfortunately the Trucker get the blame IMO
In response to the original comment Yes at initial replacement it's expensive and complex. But once the aftermarket caught up They've made it extremely simple for service I have found them far superior to drum for many things Wear life, fade during use, and service life of original components. Routinely seeing over 800k miles with good operators for original parts. Just routine inspection at an annual basis will head off many problems.
Thank you very much for this,i needed this for my education on new brakes
Great educator. My dad had told me about how seldom these brakes were and I wanted to see for myself. Makes sense. Thanks for your presentation!
Thanks for this very important information it's very expensive to drop off at a shop even just for inspection
great teacher and well explain the point of inspection, disassembly, assembly process, and process of adjustment. Bravo!
Need more video on bearings front and back lol.. don't stop doing what your doing ❤
Very good demonstration and teaching tool. Thank you !
Great Teacher.. old video but done very well.

That has to be one of the slickest brake systems ever. Easy pad change.
Thank you for this video and information 😊
Thanks Man!
Excellent at trade, thanks,
Excellent

I did same thing yesterday
I’m still wondering what to do
I have a question on this I have a Volvo with desk brakes they only last for a year they are not wearing off. They just cracking all around the routers and I have to replace them every year.
very good
Believe me this is a bad bad idea
Looks like a steer axle setup. Do you have a video of how to with a spring brake chamber for the drive axle?
So if the sheer adapter breaks the caliper should be replaced?!?
What is the average ratio of pad to rotor replacement?
So far I have 250,000 miles and I'm still on my first set of both pads and rotors and the pads are about half way worn and there doesn't look to be any wear on the rotors so far. Of course your mileage may vary.
Look how easy this is to change the brakes on this trucks now days.

Right? Ok? Right? Ok?
Does that make sense?
$1500 caliper $200 $60 wheel seal labor 🤦🤦🤦
The worst system ever made...I always have problems with my disk brakes

None of what you said is true

You would probably need Disc brakes if this human roundabout was driving your truck
Cool video though
