I love that Eric O takes the time to actually read the comment box and take tips from the viewers. That valve stem trick was awesome! Definitely gonna remember that one for my future caliper replacements.
Kenneth White yeah I know isn't he awesome
Mike Holt I subscribe to about 20 channels and I see very very few creators actual respond to people's comments. They always give some bull shit response like,"I don't have time to read and respond to everyone's comments." My response is that your fans/subscribers make you money through views and advertising. How is it that you can use your subscribers for personal income but can't take 30 minutes a day to respond to 15% of the comments made?
What size bolt did he use for that valve stem trick?
“If I can do it, you can do it!” You just got yourself a subscriber. Will be using the knowledge you shared in this video this weekend to change out my GF rear brakes on her 2003 Honda CRV. Starting with the valve stems.
I did a rear brake job on my 2005 CR-V today and gained several really helpful tips from this video, including using the valve stem and only doing the half pumps when bleeding. I don't live in the rust belt and have never really used much grease in the past but my CR-V has been fairly squeaky so I followed your lead on where to apply it this time. So far so good!
I need to read the comment section more often, great valve stem stopper tip! You are really good at applying the lube Mr. O.
I so enjoy watching these pre-pandemic videos. A much more innocent time!! haha FUN!!
Your grandmother seems to be pretty smart, especially about Auto Repair. Never get tired of the brake videos.
“I’m living your dream” great woman right there
14:20. Defective brake clean can.
Now for the HOLY SHIP, BATMAN!!
That was a fantastic tip, with the valve stem and the banjo fitting!! WOW!!
Send that guy a SMA STICKER, or two!! Triple thumbs up!! But, I only have two thumbs, so I will be forced to recycle one of my thumbs, in an attempt to appear as tho I have three!! Mind freak that, Criss Angel!
Good to know about the short pedal pumps on Hondas. Thanks for all the good info and great video.
I gotta say I dig your narrative style.
"A pin, a grinder, and a popcorn fart"? What? You're crackin' me up, Mr. O, but you're teaching me stuff! I never lubed my brake caliper pins in my life, but now I need to get in the zone to get some purple Permatex stuff! Thanks!
Thanks for the great tips: valve stem on the banjo, and the spacer rag between the pads. Made the job much easier!
Yep, again showing that real life car repair isn't as glam as the actual TV shows. Again Eric with a quality brake job done right, at least the way I"d do it too.
Nothing wrong with another brake vid...I just did my rear brakes yesterday, incorporating a lot of tips I've gleaned off of all the SMA brake videos I've watched. Thank you Mr. O!
I've always installed the brake pad holder back on the steering knuckle and then installed the caliper over the pads. I've started to do it the other way because it saves some time. Nice work.
That's a cool pre assembly tip. It's always so much easier to bench prep as much a possible
That golden caliper though!
I dont know why but I love SMA brake job videos lol. And that rag trick blew my mind. Learned something new!
Did my MIL's CR-V with my son yesterday. Wish I had seen this first.
It's not hypoallergenicly sealed, it's hermetically sealed, you know . . . to keep the hermetics out. Anyway keep on posting break jobs until we say quit. And -- Mrs. O cameos are priceless. Good video.
Eastwood makes little rubber spring clamp things as a kit of 4 or something for the whole dribbling banjo deal. They work pretty well.
I did mine by just removing calipers and then assemble everything and then just move the line from the old to the new. GOOD JOB!
I was getting worried for a while there with the whole lack of brake cleaner and then he even said it's not needed!? I was worried for your mental health Eric. But you quickly recovered.
I'm still watching you buddy, you're on thin ice mister.
Yep stand up desk use lasts about 2 weeks ish, got 4 of them in the office that never get used after we HAD to have them.
Never gets old. Enjoy watching the work of a skilled craftsman. Thanks for the _all_ the videos!
A new character!
I think we're going to have to start naming them to keep track...
This one was clearly "Paulie" from down the shore...
That was a great set of videos on the Honda, brake job and wheel bearing videos never get old.Mrs.O is looking good as always.Thanks for sharing, bro!
Hey watching you do brake jobs is a whole lot better than me doing brake jobs!
I love you talkin to us out of sight viewers. Waitin on the next SMA video with bait on my breath :-) Now off to see Ivan do Subaru head gaskets. Happy Spring :-)
Your wifey is a trooper. She'll tolerate it all!
Free tip Tuesday... On a Wednesday... On a video coming out on a Saturday morning.
LMAO you noticed that too did ya....Ya i thought it as worth a chuckle.
new parts on a vehicle aways look soo nice
dvddmc...even DORMAN parts look good when new!!
You did not just say that..... :O
Jake Austin... YES I DID!!
And I didn't get paid to say it, either.
What a great tip to plug the brake hose
Morning coffee with Eric O.
Thanks for putting your skills out there.
I love the valve stem tip:)
Great video Mrs O. :) Eric, you did too. You didn't mention to make sure you use the correct caliper, bleeder always on top. :) Remember the Jeep video. They originally used the wrong side caliper.
That screw driver you hammered on pretty cool
Excellent video!! Thanks for your detailed explanations and great audio/video quality! Please keep giving us DIY'ers your opinions on parts manufacturers.
One time I had a flat and found a roofing nail in my tire. Then my wife came home and her car had a roofing nail in the tire. Curious, I took a walk along the curve leading up to my street and picked up about 40 roofing nails scattered all over the street. I figured a roofing guy probably had them spill out of his truck as he went around the corned. Bet I saved a lot of other people from having to deal with flat tires.
I like that valve stem tip better than the board on the brake pedal - I always have to be mindful of staining, or ripping someone's seat, and killing the battery when I can't find the stupid fuse within my very short allotted time, lol. Anything that'll save me time, I'm all for! 👍
Big pimpin' with the GOLD brake caliper there! 🤑 😁
I might put an open 20" wheel on that side if it was mine just to show it off....
It would be mandatory to put a gang symbol in the center cap on that one! 😂
I've left the old caliper hanging from the strut/spring (still connected to the brake line,) and installed the new caliper. When ready, just zip off the old line, clean it up with new washers and re-install to the new caliper. Brake line is only disconnected for 10 seconds.
Great job Eric and cool tip from a comment writer about TR418 plug for banjo bolt opening on brake hoses.
Eric, it finally hit me, you sound like Jay Leno when you talk.
Thanks for the video. I could not understand what u stuck in the banjo fitting for it to stop the brake fluid. From UK
I always tap on the brake calipers with a hammer before bleeding them. I hear that it can break loose any bubbles that are clinging to the sides of the chamber & stuff. Hey, it can't hurt.
just did a set of cardone calipers yesterday. I'm very disappointed in the lack of quality control. the mounting holes on the bracket were a different thread pitch than the factory bolts. the pin bolts had so much red lock tight on them out of the box I thought the bolts were going to break coming out or at the very least strip. and in the packages of hardware, the banjo bolts that came with them were coarse thread, while the holes were fine. the actually antirattle clips didn't even fit the brackets, even though they were the same shape. I just really wish they would check this stuff over better before they throw it into the box and send it out to the stores. but I know that cost money to pay somebody to do that.
Don't even get me started on their stuff....
He mentioned in a past video that he tries to buy the Napa brand remanufactured calipers for the exact reasons you mention.
I primarily use the Napa ones where I work, and I have ran into the same issues with them, although about 80% of the time everything is fine with them.
That was so spot on with the super strong New York accent,talking about how they got something in their tire and they know where it came from.That was hilarious,if you start charging people 50 Cents to use the air hose,you would not have to work anymore lol
Keep up the good work. Love the comedy & expertise!
Fantastic video!
Great Lessons
Great video! Thanks for the help.
16:00 thanks for the info the brake bleed TSB, the video, and excellent work!
Good brake job and also like that tip with a valve stem
Not my idea, I learned it from a viewer :)
South Main Auto Repair what specific size valve stem did you use? So I can ask for it by name at my tire shop. I need to buy one for my own use.
“They’re always a little different “..that’s the moment I click 👍
I really like it when you use powerful tools. But keep your eyes safe ....!
Great job Mr O! I still want to see you do a rear drum brake job like many of the Civics have.
I would also like to see you do a follow up on your Toyota truck of the Crown treatment now that spring is here.
Rear brake vid coming up... and Krown update will be after winter is gone for good!
South Main Auto Repair...SO, MID AUGUST???
Thank You Sir!
That was a great tip on using the long valve stem, you have some smart viewers. Vanessa is a good sport and yes, they always know where the screw came from. I just had my roof replaced and one of the workers said don't let the UPS man drive to close to the house or he'll get a flat tire. Should I have questioned his quality of work? :)
I hate those clippy things, but that's a nice trick sir. Thanks Dr. O!
Hello Eric and Mrs. O.... I'm enjoying the content of your videos so much I'd like to request 3 videos per day 6 days a week plus the 2 hour Wacky Wednesday.... and of course any lawn work at the ranch you'll be doing on out of shop hours. Your channel is rapidly becoming my favorite You Tube channel and I'm telling all my family and friends about it, so you may possibly be getting a Gold play button this year!! That's got to be worth a T shirt hasn't it? lol.... Keep up the great work, Oklahoma sure could use your skills here... and we don't have much rust at all!!
Reman cardones!!! ALMOST AS GOOD AS A USED DORMAN PART!!
Great helpful tips.
Love your brake videos
Never eva get tired of brake (or any video from the masterful Eric O') seems there is always a gradma tip in there somewhere!
Ever think of just mounting a camera or two on the wall and stream live shop activity, no sound of curse, I mean course.
Thanks for another 'bute of a video
"Break clean isn't necessary" what kind of MONSTER...
AvE fan 🤘
j-d Lavoie vidjeo and aloominium..
Speaking of flat tires, my mother in law had a tire that was loosing air and my father in law (who was a builder) would say to her "what are you doing, cruisin' the job sites?"
Great video very helpful
Great video, but why did he lube the metal shims - bracket instead of pads - shims?
wondered that myself
Great video. Love Brake and rotor jobs. Good job, man!
"Grandma, shes a very smart lady"
No caps on the bleeders?
Excellent team work.
Eric great video....Mrs O looks amazing as always...I think the next time she on video you should do the slow motion with music ..she so deserves it....
Eric, as you may or may not know, I've stopped selling TOPTUL as they pissed me off. If you need anything I'd recommend you call me before the last of it goes out the door. I see the extendable ratchet is still going strong which frankly I find amazing. If you need a new one I MIGHT be able to dig one out from my secret stash. If so let me know.
Does TOPTUL still make good tools? Too bad they pissed you off...
They make GREAT tools. Doesn't matter much though if you have no idea as to how to sell product in the United States.
They sell a spring loaded clamp that seals banjo fittings....I don't remember who makes it, but I have them.....bought from local Car Quest...
1st time seeing drag clips being installed on brakes.
The only thing that has me stumpid is how did you diagnose a popcorn fart is being dry. Did you use the Pico scope? Or can that be done with the scan tool? Lol love the videos. Figured I would bust some balls today
No tools.... just your finger....
South Main Auto Repair your good! I thought maybe a thermal imager at least. To do it only with a finger my hat goes off to you. Lol
Someone else out there has a smart grandma who showed him that valve stem plug trick! I had customers who said similar stuff about their punctured tires. Question: What was in the tire? Answer: A roofing nail, I think. Reply: Yeah, I figured. My damn neighbor is a contractor and he's remodeling. I bet that's where I picked it up. That dialect was hilarious, by the way.
Channeling your internal ChrisFix hand at the master cylinder lol
I used reman Cardone calipers the other day for my Grand Caravan. They sleeved the bleed valve hole to a smaller size and blocked the hole with epoxy. Being my first ever caliper change it took me forever to figure out what happened. After drilling out their mess it bled normally.
Should the rust on the banjo fitting be removed before putting on the new caliper?
Man this Hondoo was a Hondon't.
enjoyed video and learned along the way. thanks
I loved the intro, you got a good laugh out of me!
The dirtiest thing on sma MRS O saying it is not as hard as others good video nice job
I've found that adding grease also causes a lot of resistance with the way everything moves because it collects dirt and other particles. And yeah aftermarket calipers suck but who can afford to buy the factory ones. On one of my Hondas one wheel is around 300 deg f after driving because the caliper doesn't work right and I think it's the one I just replaced. Yep aftermarket calipers. Also considering not using the pad slides on the next job because they cause too much resistance.
make sure your hose isn't pinched at the mounting bracket or crimped ends (if you're in a rusty area) the bracket/ends rust and pinch the rubber hose tight, limiting fluid flow, which means slow release/apply and hanging. stepping on and off the brakes fast, will make them pull hard each time.
Eric have you ever tried to put the face on the rotor on the hub to clean the back then flip over to clean the front. I know its a extra step but another way to clean the rotors.
Lool. Free Tip Tuesday. On a Wednesday. Posted on Saturday.
Wonder if that same size (TR418) valve stem would be the right size to fit in a 2000 Accord banjo bolt. Great idea. No more pinching off the hose...
I still turn rotors on 3/4 ton and larger trucks. Even the most Chinese ones are $100-$150 each and the quality is terrible. I need the lathe just to turn new rotors that shake after 1,000 miles. I agree on cars.
I just checked on F-250 2WD front rotors for a 2005. Cheapest ones are $68 each plus $13 shipping. But, no one wants to wait 2-3 days for shipping. Napa is a few dollars more, but same day service. I still think it's worth turning the original OEM rotors if possible. They're always better than the aftermarket. On my own truck the rear rotors went 220,000 miles.
The manufacturers seem to put no extra meat on the discs/rotors nowadays, so there isn't much opportunity to turn them and stay within the manufaturer's thickness tolerances. Just another penny-pinching idea for them, but it costs the consumer more money.
The other issue is the "lifetime" brake pads that are so hard they wear down the rotors.
Ahhh the ole pop up alignment box, bait and switch trick.
The screws in the tires come from Home Depot, Menards, Fleet Farm Lowes, Ace Hardware,,,,,,,
great tips.
Regarding not turning rotors : Do you have a "preferred" brand ? I have had terrible luck with many rotor warping in very short time. I now only buy the premium rotors, with my preference being Raybestos Advanced Technology Rotors.
LMAO "torquing the bolts to factory specs."
Great video Mr. And Ms.O, those rebuilt Pat's look good and new rotors and pads BUT good looks go by with age just saying.Keep those videos coming.
Good video Eric👍
10:33 ol’ meema’s a pretty smart lady 😊😊
that part where they ask you where they got the nail or what ever in there tire is like the same in retail when there card is declined. "Why is it doing that?" Umm Cause you have No freaking money in there!" Theres your problem Lady!
dvddmc delivering packages to customers. "I wonder what this is?". I don't know, you ordered it.
I always get tickled by the random few commenters on here that feel it necessary to mention their morning coffee. "Oh yeah another SMA video with "my morning coffee",,,, ("my") whose else would it be, lol. Geez your simply having a cup of coffee, or is it necessary to personalize it and is it necessary to share that experience. Idk, may it is. LOL
Speaking with my spouse -- Me: 'My shoulder hurts and I don't know why' ... Spouse: 'I wonder why that it is?'
