This is the way ALL “how to” videos should be done. Not a lot of unnecessary gabbing, but just the facts. Very well done, and thanks!
Thank you so much i really appreciate it:)
@@backyardchevy328 Agreed. No need to talk too much. You showed wrench sizes, torque specs, etc.
I'm doing my '05 Avalanche this weekend. You saved me a lot of money. Thanks.
Agreed! And no 3 minute music intro of bass pumping garbage
The FIRST and ONLY, Mechanic on here, who made a Video on changing out the Rear Bakes on a GM Truck, that showed where to lubricate the back of the Brake Pads, and especially, Where to Lube the area on the Slide Clips, where the Ears of the Pads Slide and make "Metal To Metal Contact". Good Job.
Another area where they never Lube, is when they Change the Parking Brake Shoes, No One has ever made a video showing that the Areas, where the back of the Shoes make contact with back Plate, there are Three Raised Areas on the Plate where brake Lube should be used, so the Shoes move Freely and do get hung up.
My rear driver's side brake locked up out of nowhere last night. Gotta do this on my 04 Avalanche. Thank you for the video! Well done
Good video man. Im taking care of this same task tomorrow on my 2002 Avalanche and just wanted to make sure I had all the steps. No extra steps, basic info...appreciate the video. Thanks.
Thank you, i really appreciate it and hope all goes well:)
I 100% agree with the previous post- ALL instructions and NO gibber-gabber. Thank you Sir! Excellent video.
thank you🙂
Probably the best video I've seen on doing this. No music or too much unnecessary talking. Great video and keep up the good work. I gotta do my 03 Silverado.
Thank you so much, i really appreciate it:) Hope everything goes well on ur silverado's brake job:)
Thank you very much for the video.
Perfect camera angles. You made it very easy to follow.
Thank you🙂
I'm about to do this on my 03 great video one of the best I've watched
Hope everything goes smoothly🙂...thank you🙂
You make it look easy. I was able to replace my water pump because of you, thank you!
Thats awesome! Great job🙂👍
Very Thorough video with many added tips. The lube points you included were not included in many other videos.
Very simple and easy to follow instructions.. Thanks very much.
Thank you so much:) I really appreciate the support:)
Exactly what we needed today.
The inclusion of tool sizes was what I was after. Good job.
Thank you🙂
I used your video to replace front rotor and pads on my son's 06 Chev Impala. Pretty much the same here for my 03 Avalanche. Now to find how to replace the emergency brake shoes.
Excellent video! I’m doing my ‘99 Silverado tomorrow, thanks for getting me ready for action!!
Thank you🙂...hope everything goes smoothly good luck🙂
Great Video straight and to the point, Thanks great job
Thank you so much:) have a great new year
Straight on point and all the size info 👌
Thank you🙂
This guy just got a subscriber
This was a good video I was looking for the brake lines but I realized you just sat it on the back still connected that's smart, I never bleed my break before so that would be a good video as well thank you for the awesome vid.
Thank you so much🙂..yea thats definitely a great video idea, ill definitely do one on that shortly.
Best how to video ever perfectly done great lighting well lit area you should do more please
Thank you so much:) i got 99 other videos so far:)
That was awesome, very helpful thank you very much!!!!
Thank you so much:) and thank you for watching and supporting my channel:)
Best detailed video!
Mejor que los mecanicos que tengo aqui ami alrededor
Eres un crack. Buen video bien explocado
Muchas gracias🙂
Men this help me a lot on Chang my breaks for first time on my Escalade thanks a lot thus help me a lot bro.
That's awesome:) so glad to be able to help u replacing ur brakes:) Thank you
Excellent video and right to the point.
Thank you:)
Great job of procedure !
Thank you so much:)
Make sure to release the e brake!!! I might have missed it in the video but I couldn’t get the rotor to come off until I googled why.
Anyways great video. You sure did help me a bunch. Thank you!
Yea that ebrake will hold it in the middle, glad u were able to figure it out🙂👍 thank you
Nicely done. Thanks.
Thank you🙂
I think to call it a complete rear brake job, I think you should include the E-Brakes and wheel cylinder refurbishment
thanks for the video. Now I work in the semi heavy duty side of trucks. So I don't know if this applies to small trucks. We have been advised to open the bleeder while pushing in the caliper pistons because the manufacture suggested that when you push the fluid back into the system you can contaminate the ABS system. Just a suggestion. I don't have any documentation. Then also check the brake fluid level afterwards just like you showed. I'm going out to do my step sons brakes on his. So I wanted to see what was up first. So again thanks.
Thank you🙂..It does apply to any brakes but if not done properly and allowed to get air in system without bleeding properly itll cause bigger issues...so i guess when i do videos i should at least mention it.
Always a good idea indeed, that fluid that sits out that far gets pretty hot at times, especially when the calipers are hanging up
Good video...straight forward and simple. Thanks! Just a note, I believe the calliper you compressed was a front calliper, only one piston on the rear calliper. Although you did that for the intent of the video, it could be confusing to the unaware. Cheers!
Thank you🙂...no it actually was a rear caliper..certain packages came with a 2 piston rear caliper
Mine has two it’s an 04 avalanche
thank for the video
Thank you for watching and for the support🙂
Great video
Thank you so much
Nice job a making this video man !!!👍👍👍
Thank you🙂
nice video well done, I was wondering I have a chevy express van 1500 and i am going to do the rear rotors is it the same as your avalanche I hear it is.
Thank you🙂 yea its the same procedure if its rear disc brakes.
Thank you!
Thank you for watching and ur support🙂
Are the rotor retainers necessary? Great to the point video. Thank you my friend.
Buen video compa
Muchas Gracias:)
Solid video
Thank you🙂
You also have to torque specs for the front or do you have a video on how to do the front brakes, curious of the torque specification differences between the front and rear
The caliper bolts torque spec is 74 ft lbs...and the caliper bracket bolts are 129 ft lbs
Vin Diesel !!! Great video !
Thank you🙂
Great how to! I drive a 03 1500 4x4 Avalanche and the only minor difference was that I was not able to slide the pads into the Caliper Bracket when attached to the Rotor. 6:54
Thank you:) This one was an 02 avalanche, what did u have to do in ur case?
Mine is the same I had to remove the whole caliper and slide in the pad
This dude sound like Danny Trejo lol but thank you Mr. for your help
Lol...thank you🙂
are the parts from an 04 avalanche the same as the ones on an 07- ?
This a year later but id cross reference everything. I replaced my suspension(all), power steering(all), brakes rotors calipers and lines(all) and all fluids except radiator. Oh and headers. And there are several differences in the generation of this videos vehicle. Your '07 is a different generation. Id suggest anyone to go buy a gm manual.read the manual and even look at the pics. It make watching these vids so much easier to follow and even gives many ideas for issue on non related vehicle. This video lacks a scuffed knuckle from the ratchet busting a tooth a bit of profanity or even to se this man try to bench press the truck. Lol stuff that happens before editing. All in all this is on the top 5 how to vids awesome no bull shit.👍👍
Would it be the same process for a 2011?
Yes, it will be same process just with different part numbers
what socket size did you use for everthing
I normally have it during the video...but i use a 22mm socket for the lug nuts...a 12mm for the 2 caliper mounting bolts..18mm for the caliper bracket
great video just missed greasing slide pin and open master cylinder lid so u won't have air trapped in there
Thank you🙂 yea the slide pin should definitely be lubricated as well..they do have a vent hole on the brake master so it removes any air..but it does make it easier to compress when lid is removed though
should have used blue loctite on the 2 calliper bracket bolts. I had one come out on a truck I bought and my brakes locked up do to the caliper jambing against the rim. I spoke with I spoke with a mechanic about this and he said that this was not uncommon to happen and that is why GM uses loctite from factory
Its actually recommended to replace the bolts which come with loctite on em, but if torqued properly with the threadlocker it had originally it still should not back out, but blue loctite would be a good idea...but given the option id rather just replace the bolts as recommended.
asy se ase un video perron gracias
Gracias amigo🙂👍
Maestro para cerrar los pistones del caliper recomienda abrir el puerto de purga o solo con la presión para cerrarlo???
Yo prefiero hacerlo sin abrirlo porque se le puede entrar aire en el sistema de ese modo
Gracias maestro... lo haré a pura presión entonces
Le agradezco la ayuda
@@ChippingconcreteDFWHTOWN de nada🙂
Does it matter which side up the brake pad go
Youll want the brake pad with the warning tab to go pointing up and on the inner side
@backyard Chevy
Did you have to bleed the brakes?
No, u only have to bleed the brakes if u get air into the system, like say u change a brake hose or opened the valve and let air get in..or changed caliper etc..but if u didnt just pump the brake pedal when ur done changing em before u turn it on and youll be good to go
@@backyardchevy328 I’ll tackle this brake job tomorrow. Some bolts, brake cleaner and grease. Later on I’ll do the front upgraded version bigger calipers and rotors. Thank you
@@user-kc2ul2rh8b sounds like a great plan..hope all goes well, good luck🙂👍
Wow, mine never come apart that easily - often a torch is required to get those brackets loose
What's the best way to figure out what brakes and rotors need to be changed?
Ur brakes are making noise? Or whats it doing?
this video might help czcams.com/video/fjSAkC7te8g/video.html
My brakes feel as if they slip when I try to brake.
I know for a fact I have to change them but idk which one or which ones to change. And idk if it's just the pads or the rotors as well
@@mariapalacios9249 sounds like maybe ur rotors are glazed, when they're glazed the surface is too smooth so the brakes feel like they have no grip...if u look at ur rotors theyre most likely reflective like a mirror..so ud wanna replace the brakes and the rotors...the front brakes do most of the braking so ud probably wanna check those or start with those.
Bro when you compressed the Piston you didn't say when to bleed the brakes or when to remove the brake fluid cap
If u dont open the valve u wont have to bleed the brakes, unless u get air in the system like for example u change a brake hose or u replace a brake caliper, etc.Brake fluid cap u dont have to open unless u will have to take some brake fluid out when u compress the piston and it starts getting past the full mark and u still got more to go.
@@backyardchevy328 ok thank you
Did you bleed them ?
No, u only have to bleed em if u introduce air into the system..like if u replace a hose, a caliper, etc.
What about the emergency brake that’s not a complete brake job without the emergency break.
True..but it shouldnt wear out as long as its not used while driving so it shouldnt really need it for regular use
@@backyardchevy328 it should be adjusted when you remove the rotor/drums as it typically doesn't auto adjust on these.
Why do the caliper pins spin freely on these trucks?? Most cars Ives done have a flat where all u do is tighten the caliper bolts down. Here u MUST try to squeeze a little open end wrench in and prevent it from spinning. None of my open ends will clear that small gap on a 2008 Avalanche.
Yea i know what u mean, most gm vehicles have caliper pins that design, I usually use a small crescent wrench i have to hold em
I just press the pistons back in by hand.
That works too🙂
Aren't the lug nuts torqued to 140 ft pounds
Yea they are..after i had posted it i noticed i got the torque spec from the chevy astro which was right above it
What ran past you
One of our two cats
Backyard Chevy glad to hear that
Audio is somewhat garbled.
Vin dieselholy shit
Guess my secret is out lol
Dame dude, get some air tools, an impact wrench.
Lol i actually have quite a bit..but i prefer to show step by step including what way to turn the ratchet and all..yes it takes me much longer but i feel it helps viewers..now when im not recording i bzz bzz bzz the lug nuts off and cordless ratchet the bolts off caliper and bracket etc lol
@@backyardchevy328 Good enough...lol
That type of caliper compressor is a bad design. The edges on that plastic star cuts into your fingers. Should’ve made it with a simple door knob design to turn. Other than that, good job. I have the dual rear piston calipers too, on my ‘02 Avalanche
Thank you🙂 yea it does depend on how hard it is to compress the caliper..most are pretty easy..but yea when theyre harder it can do that..maybe a t handle design thats found on other rear caliper compression tools may be better
@@backyardchevy328 Seriously, think about it. With door knob design, you can get a lot of torque from your wrist on those stubborn slow moving pistons. I’m an expert on working smart, and not hard. With that “T” handle, you’d have to keep repositioning your hand on each turn. 👉🏽🧠
@@regsmith7604 yea i can see it..but it would have to be a grippy knob..cause if its slippery or with sweaty palms it may affect it
@@backyardchevy328 Clean 🧼 hand, no oil, no grease, and ergonomically design
@@regsmith7604 id definitely try it if it were available🙂👍
Wheels 103 foot-pounds of torque?...... I was told a 140 foot-pounds
