Replacing Rear Disc Brakes Part 2

As you might have guessed this is part 2 of 3, I will put links in the video and in this description to guide you to the other parts. There really is more to this video than just replacing the rear brakes. I had some trouble during this procedure and decided to keep it on video to help you in the event you ran into any of these problems. I've also added how I jack up a vehicle from the rear. In short this one is packed with a bunch of stuff that I hope you find helpful in addition to just replacing the rear pads and rotors.

Hi Erick, I saw you block the flow with the flier, what is the reason why you dont want to push the brake fluid back to the line? thxxx

[EricTheCarGuy]

@sakitlikod1 I have seen instances where that damaged the master cylinder. I also don't do it so that I don't overflow the master causing brake fluid to spill out the top as brake fluid will ruin paint.

were you used that special tool could you use an old brake pad and the tool that compresses it or do you have to have a special tool to turn it?

[EricTheCarGuy]

@nico27004 No you have to turn the type of caliper piston that is used for the parking brake assembly.

Eric! You have some outstanding videos man...all for free!!! One could not ask for more. Thank you so much for posting these for the occasional DIYer. Wish you all the best...

Eric, great video and presentation, your are a natural. We are Igralub/GWR and make brake service products for all levels of this industry, from OEM to repair shops. See GWRauto . com . I'd like to recommend you replace the spring hardware during brake service, heat does fatigue them. Likewise when you put hdw back in the caliper, be sure lube between them and the metal of the caliper (Coupled Resonance) with our Ceramlub. Please give me a call, I'd like to talk.
