How to Change Brake Pads On a 2006 Yamaha Rhino 660

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This video gives an overview of how to replace the rear brake pads on a 2006 Yamaha Rhino 660. This video may also be applicable for the Rhino 450 and the Raptor. Remember to take the brake fluid reservoir cap off prior to working on the brakes.
There is only one rear brake caliper and it's in line with the drive shaft. If you lift up the bed of the Rhino and look in from the right side you'll see the caliper. There are two 14mm bolts that hold it in place. If you remove the rear right wheel of the Rhino you can easily access the top bolt on the caliper. The lower bolt can be accessed from under the Rhino. You'll need to remove the plastic skid plate in order to get access to the lower bolt and the caliper, though. Once both of these bolts are removed, you can work the caliper out and let it hang loose. You'll then want to remove the two 5mm allen bolts on the side of the caliper. This will release the brake pads. Take the brake pad shims that were on the old pads and put them on the new pads. Grease the perimeter of the new pads prior to installation to allow them to glide freely once installed. Using a very wide screwdriver or chisel, turn the brake piston clockwise to seat it back into the caliper. Reverse the disassembly order to install the new pads and to put the caliper back in place.

    Thanks for the info. It worked perfectly on my 2012 Rhino 700. Hardest part is breaking the bolts loose.

    What kind of lube do you suggest and what parts do you lube? First time owner of a used 2007 rhino 660 and novice to moderate mechanic

    I would spray all of the bolts with something like Fluid Film, PB Blaster or WD-40. That will make them easier to remove. I use high temp grease for around the pads. You can get that at any auto parts store.

    What do you do when you strip the Allen heads.

    That's a tough one. Probably get an allen head bolt extractor kit and see if that works.

    Think mine were on wrong. Watched for correct placement of pads. Waste of time
