.Good on you, Eric, for the BROAD shoulders. I use lots of what's called Muscle Grease, too.
Eric one more thing to say… the bolt for removing the caliper can be actually undone with a very flat thin spanner and finally using a long nose pliers without removing the upper control arm.Once again thank you for your videos.!!
Shut up about the F**kin rust belt. Come to Nova Scotia, I'll show you rust.
Going back into the extensive SMA library for a new (used) car addition to the family. Great resource and appreciated! ðŸ‘
What a great design, putting that control arm blocking the caliper bracket bolt.. lol 9:07 Usually it's mechanics and professional drivers who are the only ones to use the parking brake with an automatic transmission. I constantly see people who are parked on a hill, jump in, start it up, rip it out of park, and the poor park pin in the transmission makes that awful sound they always make under stress, sometimes leading to the pin failure so park no longer holds. Word of advice; when you park, engage the park brake, then put it into park, before taking your foot off the brake pedal. When getting back into the vehicle, reverse the process. Not only good for the transmission in the long run, also good for the parking brake system so it keeps working freely.
Well done easy brother 😠thanks
"bring it around town and hit from the bottom, if you know what I mean". This is how service manuals should be written.
… 11.20 to 11.27 …that is exactly what they sound like . Thank you for doing what you do.
Are you on south main in Rockford Illinois
This guy greased UNDERNEATH the hardware. And then didn't grease where the pads go on the hardware. 😂
I could watch 100 SMA brake job videos. Learn a little each time.
You can’t do too many brake video it’s the delivery and entertainment we come here for and I think I pick something up from each one anyway! Thanks keep them coming we need our brake Kleen fix!!
You probably want answer but the dust shield is it a big job to remove i have a 2013 elantra
A bit rough and ready but otherwise a good job, here in Australia it is called a park brake not an emergency brake although it is not compulsory to use it but is strongly recommended. The only drivers who do not use it are either to stupid or bloody lazy.
I use my parking brake every time I park. It's good for your transmission
Good video man. Should i take the cap off the fluid reservoir before pushing calipers back??? Thanks
I put new pads and rotors in both my ELANTRA s in front and after driving a while, they start grinding before coming to a complete stop, what would cause that
Great video what is that battery ratchet your using I don’t see it listed
Just did these on the GF's 2012 Elantra Touring. Awesome vid and dead nuts on. Thanks for the tips Eric!
We had an '03 Elantra that needed an emergeny tire change; hubby (who could at that time have done it himself without thinking twice) couldn't get the wheel off; it had rusted to the wheel hub. Had to have it towed to a shop to get it done. Glad they've addressed that issue in (or before?) the '10 model.
Are the 2014 Hyundai rear brake identical in construction?
I use my e-brake a bunch. Automatic RAM and I don't drift (unless its snowing).
Eric, could you inform us of the electric ratchet you use? I haven't seen it listed.
I wish every set of brake pads for brake jobs would come with new hardware but that's another way that gouge you on money is charge you extra for just the brake hardware kit
I pretty much do exactly this. Remove rust from metal surfaces and lube up brackets and pins and shins on pad. Always lube parking break hardware, as this ALWAYS seems to be an issue. No lube on any bolts as it’s not necessary. And your good. Been doing it since I was 16 and I get nice even wear.
Kid playing Tokyo drift. Lmao.
What kind of wrench is that at minute 2:28? Name and brand would be amazing please.
Two thumbs up
Do you turn brake rotors? Or do you recommend new rotors at every brake job?
grate video Eric oh and for the record ha ha I always use my E brake on my focus wagon when im parked in my driveway LOL
