No need to bleed if you didn’t introduce any air into the system, unless you want to squeeze out the nasty fluid in the calipers.

It's great to see an older dude like Scotty crawling around on concrete and busting knuckles, turning wrenches. A body in motion and an active mind. Something the younger generations should be watching and learning in schools at an early age, before being institutionalized to be helpless and lazy.

Most shop videos on brakes show the axle face plate being cleaned so the rotor will install flat.

Scotty, this is one of your best and Common Sense videos on brake jobs. Also my son got me a DeWalt impact and it works great. One of the handiest tools I've ever used.

I thought it was strange that Scotty thinks that a battery with a higher capacity would provide more power to the impact wrench. The higher capacity just means that the wrench can be used longer, before the battery goes dead. What most likely happened was that the lower capacity battery was already low on charge; or like when a second person is able to open a jar, after the first person had already loosened the lid somewhat.

@andrewneel7411

10 күн бұрын

Perhaps the battery failed at the exact time you made the recording and a new fresh battery was all that was needed. The amp hour capacity probably was not the issue, but the fact his extra battery was a higher amp hour happens to be a coincidence likely

To keep it simple for you… A higher capacity battery will allow a higher voltage for a longer amount of time. The higher the voltage, the more output power is available in a dc motor.

I am glad to see Scotty Kilmer puts the brakes on right! He uses brake grease, or caliper grease and he does it exactly as it should be done. Many times, why brakes go bad prematurely is because they are not put on with new hardware (when old hardware needs to be replaced) and he lubricates the pins and the brake pad mounting points.

"It get's hard and stays hard" Scotty Kilmer!

Hey Scotty, you left out the part that the brake system should be flushed and bled to get the old fluid out and to make sure there's no air in the system. Unlike DOT 5 used on some motorcycles it doesn't absorb moisture like DOT 3 or 4 does. If you don't keep your brake fluid clean eventually you'll have problems with the master cylinder piston and caliper pistons sticking causing the brakes to drags and eventually brake failure. Systems without ABS can be done easily, but systems with ABS you have to have a machine to open and close the valves in the ABS system so that you flush the entire system. If you flush and bleed the system without this machine your not getting all of the oold brake fluid out contamunating the new fluid. I'm a retired motorcycle technician and machinist starting in May 1979. Still in the industry, but behind the counter selling parts and accessories and service and repair. Especially on a motorcycle because you don't have fenders and bumpers seatbelts and airbags to protect yourself in a crash like in a car. Maintaning your tires brakes and engine performance are the three most important things on a motorcycle. They are important on a car too, but again atleast you have fenders bumpers seatbelts and airbags to protect yourself in a crash if any of them fail.

@@michaelcarson8375 I was not aware there was a question I needed to answer in my previous comment, but here we go. As far as I know Harley Davidson is the only motorcycle manufacturer that uses DOT 5 and have been for years until their bikes came equipped with anti-lock brakes, then they went to DOT 4. From what I understand DOT 5 is too thick for the small passages in the anti-lock system. With that said, cars that have anti-lock systems can only use DOT 3 or 4. The difference between DOT 3 & 4 is DOT 3 is yellow and DOT 4 is clear and it has a higher wet boiling point which means the fluid can withstand higher temperatures before it starts to boil. There's also performance racing brake fluids that are equivalent to DOT 4 like Motul DOT 5.1, RBF 600 & RBF 660 which should only be used in racing, not on the street because it absorbs moisture very fast and if not flushed regularly or the brake system doesn't get hot enough to boil the water out, the water will accumulate in the system, master cylinder, calipers and clogging brake lines causing brakes to stick.

Some $7 closeout ceramic brake pads i got from Rock Auto are the BEST brakes I've ever had!

I never considered replacing my own rotors or pads until watching this video.

Way to go, scotty!!

I had an 09 Camry that warped brake rotors like nobody's business. I delivered auto parts with the car so I was able to get them warrantied out multiple times at no charge, but I got tired of doing brake jobs every 15k miles. Finally I switched to Akebono and no more warping. That's all I will use on my Toyota. I'm fortunate that one of my customers gets them for me at his cost, so I can get Akebono pads and rotors for about $150 per axle.

I replaced the original front rotors on my wife’s 2019 Odyssey with Centric e-coated rotors. Brakes were acting weird 60k later. Upon removal of the Centric rotors it became apparent to me that the rotors didn’t match! I rechecked the part numbers on the boxes and sure enough both boxes matched but one of the rotors must’ve been for the previous gen odyssey.

Most shops will not turn brake rotors as in the ‘old days’. They are mostly disposable due to the way they are made these days. Besides, in my experience you won’t even find shops that perform that anymore. Possibly, but few and far between.
