In 1978 when I got my drivers license I would never have thought that I would be watching car repair videos on something called the internet and liking it.
I still love a Chilton. I used to read them as a kid for fun.
I work at a Chrysler dealership and just last week the shop foreman comes over to me and asks "Do you have an 11 mm allen socket?, I am doing a brake job and a Grand Cherokee and I dont have a socket to fit it!"
This Video made my day! Every thing Eric O said is just what I say daily! I've been doing this for 32 years and brother I quit every day! Truest statement "We dont like surprises" Still chuckling at that one!
I forgot how fun is to watch you do brake jobs. It's not so much that we need to see another brake job video, it's all the color commentary that goes with it. Thank you, Sir. Many laughs were had.
"I'm running behind today"
takes a 20 min test drive lol
and hit the ice cream shop
"Hey, it's that guy!" I don't know why but that brought tears to my eyes for laughing so hard. Love the videos Mr. O!
It was so natural, that's why it's funny.
Gotta turn the camera off so I can swear. Story of my life! Love you man!
I wish you were local. By far the best and honest mechanic iv seen. Even on the little things you do a job like it was ur own vehicle. Respect to u sir.
I was going to do the brakes on my '14 Grand Cherokee in the next week or so...impeccable timing....thanks for telling me I need to buy a new socket!!
Never get sick of brake jobs.
Gravy on the meat and taters!!
No brake cleaner? Damn
Yea love the sound affect.
That was my first thought too.
Eric O: I should stop doing so many front brake videos.
Also Eric O: stupid decisions by automakers force me to make so many front brake videos.
Me: Still gonna watch it.
Thank you! First, I did not have an 11mm hex either. Your video saved me a huge amount of time and money. It seems the "anti rattle" clip actually affects brake operation. I completed a pad and rotor change easily enough but FAILED to note the installation position of the aforementioned clips. Following my incorrect clip installation, I experienced terrible pedal fade. I thought I had damaged a caliper or something. I then watched your video and noted the clip position . I then repositioned my clip correctly AND magically, the brakes then functioned normally. PS I enjoyed the banter!
Welcome to South Main Brakes and other things.
Today I was in a set of circumstances which really made me appreciate the way Mr. O. does things. I got a flat, but had taken out my tools out for a project. The wheel rusted to the rotor, and wouldnât come off. Luckily I found a old brick to use as a hammer. This is why grinding off the rust is so important.
The best part of the brake job is your test drive, your little town reminds me of my childhood home town, about the same size. Thanks for the video.
The notification came up and I actually said out loud "sweet, brake job"
Me Too! Brake Job I'm there!!!!!!
Rig up a zip line over the bridge so Ms. Marie can pay her debts for raccoon damage fix.
Chrysler engineering Dept: What's the most uncommon bolt size?
Chrysler Mechanics: well a 11mm is pretty uncommon but I bought a Craftsman set that come with a 11mm never really used it.
Chrysler engineering Dept: oh well did it have a 11mm Allen key?
Chrysler Mechanics: no never seen one of them...
Chrysler engineering Dept: great we are going to make are brake pins 11mm Allen.
Mechanics: .....
Chrysler purchasing department:
"Hey boss, I found a great deal on 500,000 11mm caliper bolts".................................
Not a lot of brain to buy Chrysler junk
Growing up in a Chrysler household this strikes home.
@@threefortyduster just another way to try to get you back to the stealership..all manufacturers do the same crap.
@@bojangleszj How does a $6 tool make a dealership visit any more necessary? Reminds me of a customer remark at a parts store when Torx fasteners started appearing on cars: "They're just trying to make it where a man can't work on his own car anymore."
WE Will never be tired of brake job videos. Your commentary opinions jokes and just overall view of things are always funny insightful and just awesome background noise. Never ever ever stop brake job videos. Put out more videos put out more videos put out more videos and if you can youâre what happens in a day at the shop videos are awesome too can never get enough of those thanks Eric and Mrs. O
Never disappointed with the SMA videos!
Eric, your videos are always a ppleasure to watch. With all the problems in the world, I like being able to watch one of your videos where you always have a positive attitude. Iâve ran in to people in shops that have really tried my patients at times. I wish all shops were ran like yours. Iâm sure you run in to your share of difficult people, but you do a wonderful job keeping a positive attitude. Your not cursing while making a video is something I really appreciate. Iâve watched other content providers that donât care. Watching auto shows on TV, like Fantom Works, they beep out so much it sounds like morse code. Annoys me that even though they know they are shooting a TV show that will be seen by young kids, they still canât control their mouths. Keep up the good work.
Eric,
11mm = .433
7/16 = .4375
You should be able to use 7/16. Never sick of YOUR brake jobs.
SMA#1
God bless
Paul
Excellent idea!! If I didn't have a 7/16 I would've machined down the tip of a 12mm. Your idea makes me think of how
many times I've used a 9/16" wrench/socket on a 14mm bolt or 3/4" on a 17mm bolt....or, like Eric has said - use a metric Crescent wrench...
Jack Nobles 3/4 on a 19*
@@ilikeboost4764 Oopsy! Stand corrected!
While I have your "ear" - you have any recommendation for brand of scanner tool? I was looking at Harbor Freight's Zurich brand (Zurich 11 or 13)-they any good?
Jack Nobles I have no clue. I need to get a scanner but don't have one currently.
I keep saying.....your becoming AMERICAS MOST TRUSTED CZcams MECHANIC
South main looks like a throw back to the past
I remember in my elementary school days our school custodian had a "bang head here" poster in the utility room on the furnace/boiler. Brings back memories.
After spending a dozen hours or so working on my 07 300c I can definitely say that Chrysler engineers got a big bonus for making something that is usually simple very overly complicated for the average person. Keep up the good work, your videos always teach me stuff and entertain me.
Just bought an 11mm hex socket on Amazon for no reason. You don't need it until you need it. Better safe than sorry, I guess. Thanks Eric!
Totally miss the goat noise when using fluid film or any other cancer in a rattle can lol great vids!! Thank you for taking the time to do them!!
I lost my Snap On 7/16 wrench like 20 years ago. Been using an 11mm ever since.
I was thinking of that too.
Eric, keep your chin up man. There are way worse things than the shop being busy. Plus it means more opportunity for content for us!
Gotta love those "since its here" customers. Today 2015 Volvo for a lof shows up with 4 new tires to be mounted and balanced. And since it's here go ahead and do my tires plus an alignment. Thanks for the video it helps make my lunch better.
Down it panama city after the hurricane, they had trees piled 3 stories tall by 100 yds wide by 300 yds long in four locations! They were shredding from oct '18 to the last time I was there 4/19.
Just happened to me today!! NO ONE in northern Indiana has one lol I had to order from Napa today, too!! I guess it's the T55 to the rescue!! Thanks for the help!!!
Just picturing the Mopar engineer's assistant "Boss, will 10mm female hex work for this caliper pin fastener?"
"NO"
"Oh, because I was just thinking that everyone has a"
"I said no"
Lol so true... Send like they could have came up with something unique. Some 7 pointed 11.5mm, inverted or something like that...
very handy hint - the 11mm bolt thingy! Don't need Allen drives, at all just a box of bolts.
Horn blows "Hey it's that guy" Cracks me up every time!
Chrysler gives a whole new meaning to "where's the 10 mil?".
Avoca looks like a war zone with the street tear up and lack of ice cream. Things can only get better for you, Eric O! Keep those brake job videos coming..
Ahhhhhh the question; " How long will it take to do?"
Answer: As long as it takes!!!!!
And that's the way it is!!!!!
and its done when i say so
How long will it take? Whatâs your budget?
@@PaulyD0859 that's the $64,000 question I always got when you call the customer back and tell them (1) how much and of course they say, how long?? I'd say when I get the parts and turn the rotors and assemble it and take it for a test drive to insure everything is ok, I'll call you
@@RedArwBus LOL, I can do it while you wait, just bring a cut lunch, a thermos and you can teach yourself to knit in the meantime.
What great father and husband and mechanic.
Still enjoy doing brake jobs, gravy mist if the time.
Loved your comment about appointment to check air pressure in tires and show up expecting a rebuild.
That was my BIGGEST gripe when I had my business. I worked by appointment only because it was a dude business so I had to schedule my client vehicle drop offs very precisely and it never failed, people would call to get a quote and schedule a fairly easy or quick job so Iâd schedule the next job right on top of it. Then the client would show up and gave either a much more time consuming job they wanted done or a list of things in addition to the one they called about.
âOh, while you have it on the lift can you do X, Y and Zâ? In-freakinâ-believable.
I had the same issue doing my 92 year old grandfather's Ford Escape's brakes in the middle of the night. I ended up using the Chuck side of a hole saw.
Oh Eric, I understand the disappointment of a closed bridge cutting off your ice cream supply.
A couple years back I was having tummy problems and it turned out that I was now lactose intolerant. Just happened. Your bridge will reopen but my guts wont be never see ice cream again
I'm the main parts guy for a church car repair ministry. We buy most of our parts from NAPA. NAPA treats us very well. Still, I keep thinking I should ask them, "Why don't you sponsor South Main Auto?"
I bought a 13pc set of sunex 3/8 drive one piece hex bits long ago. They have both metric and standard in one set + a nice case. They run from 4mm to 1/2. The set includes a 7/16 which is usually close enough to a 11mm. I use those 1/2 drive harbor freight one piece hex bits for larger sizes.
Not having an uncommon socket. This was more of a Day in the life video of a mechanic.
Nice job.
Eric I never get tired of the brake jobs.I enjoy all of the videos keep them coming.
When I bought my tools at Sears back in the early 90s, when you would buy a combo wrench set, it would come with everything except for a 15 millimeter wrench. Pissed me off.
You took me back to the '70s, had an OSSA 250cc Stiletto motorcycle it had a couple of 11mm bolts hat held the engine in the frame, NEVER have used the 11mm sockets I bought for that bike since then!
7/16 will fit 11mm, 5/16 will double as a 8mm, 3/4 is only .002 away from 19mm. 5/32 works for 4mm. I've used that knowledge often in factory maintenance.
Tony Whitaker ... Absolutely correct. A 14mm wrench or socket is actually better on 9/16" hex head bolts or nuts due to being very slightly tighter in fitment.
Conversely, a œ" wrench or socket fits tighter on a 13mm hex. The catch is that 13mm hex bolts or nuts are very rare.
As someone in Australia, seems foreign to have calipers as a consumable item, salt belt is nasty on cars.
Years ago had the same problem with Vauxhall had all hex keys except 7mm that they used, most sets missed that size too back in the day.
Thought I was watching a Mustie1 video between 12:38 13:06. Had to recheck my browser tab to make sure I was on the right video.
Yay, another brake job! We love them!
And, yes, use of weird fastener sizes is intentional. I'm convinced of it.
Terrifically helpful. No surprises in my DIY project including the 11mm allen socket. I ended up with a 7/16" instead. My Napa didn't have the 11mm.
Nice T shirt, 11mm, bridge out so no ice cream, and Main street has been reduced to a pile. Check. :)
Sigh....the end is nigh for Avoca.
Thanks for the video. First thing I did was check my hex drive sockets. Yup! I am in the same boat. everything but 11mm! Grrrr!
That guy called at the perfect time, you could take your aggression out on that old brake rotor. I used to work at a dealer so I can relate when you say people add stuff once they show up at the shop, they used to do that to us ALL the time.
Hahaha I did a brake job on a grand Cherokee a few months ago and thought the same thing when I saw it wasn't just a simple bolt holding the caliper. Come on Chrysler!
great video.And Sporting Steves Shirt from the UK and a Miss O explaining the added costomer request priceless.
Eleven mill allen's are a bit of an oddity, but yes, every now and then some engineer will specify their use and getting the appropriate wrench can be a bit of a trial.
Recently a friend of mine thought it would be a good idea to buy an old BSA Gold Star 500 motorcycle. He was doing a bit of work on it and there was a fair amount of cussing going on when he found that his tools, either imperial or metric, simply did not fit properly. I watched quietly for a few minutes and then asked the question, "Have you ever heard of British Standard Whitworth?" He gave me a look like I was from the dark side of the moon and I then went on to explain about how England, being an island and all, had developed their very own standard for thread pitches and bolt heads. He called a couple of local tool emporiums only to be told he would have to go to the dreaded Snap On dealer. He called them and they named prices that gave him heart palpitations. I just smiled as his frustration grew. He told me I was a smug SOB who seemed to be enjoying his plight and I admitted it. Then I told him, "I'm going home now. I might have to dig out an old tool box that I seldom use these days. It's the tool box that I used to use when I rode Nortons." He called me about an hour later and asked if he could borrow my "Norton tools". Moral of the story is never ever get rid of old tools. Never can tell when they might come in handy.
I'm just waiting now until he loses a bolt. You see, this smug SOB also happens to have another old tool box filled with spare nuts and bolts along with a tap and die set from when I rode Nortons.................
bet he loves your smug ass now !!!!!
Watching Eric O. grease up the caliper bracket and pistons... my brain says, it's the S.M.A. version of painting with Bob Ross.
That is like the L83/L86 bank 1 cylinder heads. One bolt is a shorter allen headed and it is a 13mm, and of course not many sets have that size. But Husky did and also has the 11mm!
Thanks SMA for another great video!
2019 Subaru Ascent Front Caliper bolts are also 11mm Hex
I went through the exact same thing on one of those. Customer dropped car off with a power stop brake kit. I pulled wheels and spent next hour cussing at 2 different metric allen socket sets. Called customer and low and behold they had done brakes 2 years prior and also have another jeep with same size. They used a 7/16 that was shaved down s bit.
What?! No brake cleaner?! This is an outrage! I demand to see the manager!
**** Just kidding, Eric - we love you Dude. Really.
I ended up welding a bolt into a cheap socket on the one I did. If you're a cheapskate like me it beats buying one and fumbling with the double nuts flopping around. You can also run a nut down and tack it to the bolt head for a longer wrench. If the flats don't meet you can put a washer in between, tack it and trim the washer on the grinder. I've probably got a dozen or so made like this and they work great. Last tip is if you round the top edges of the bolt head off a little it will make it work like the ball end sockets to help in tight spaces.
I think Napa ought to have SMA stickers and such for sale at the counter. Good or bad publicity is publicity. Maybe ask them about licencing an SMA/NAPA sticker promo. Would definitely buy a sticker locally for my tool box. Probably sit and talk at the counter about SMA for an extra two minutes as well.
Thanks for the 11mm tip.
16 people are sick of brake job videos, but i never get tired of them. đ
Was able to stop in and say hi to the great MR O and crew today. Heâs staying busy, Had a big job just to change AC lines on a SUV
What an interesting idea, use a bolt head as the allen wrench. In a million years I never would have thought of that.
Ha! Had to laugh cause I said the same thing about an 11MM Allen head when I first did the brakes on my 14 GC as well.
@7:14 those rubbers have to come out, and you need to clean underneath them. Those are German ATE brakes (thanks to Daimler), and they even make a special tool for that (looks like a bottle brush Flex-Hone 22mm front 18mm for the rear) to clean out or hone the holes where those rubbers sit in. It corrodes and puts pressure on the rubber that makes your slide pins stick. Common sense to use silicone based oil or grease for the rubber.
Love your commentary, always thorough and thoroughly entertaining! đ
Live in Phoenix AZ, there is a very big N.A.P.A here that is staffed by the slowest uninterested people ever. We call it take a napa.
Don't have a 11mm either, but I have a pile of unused 9 mm he wrenches.
I have a gearwrench metric hex set that came with 11mm. Never had a need for it yet. I figured out the bolt & double nut trick doing a power steering box on a International 7400, forgot the size but it was huge
As a retired diesel mechanic I have a question about pushing old brake fluid backwards in the system????
What are your thoughts on doing this???
The reason I ask is that I attended Bendix Westinghouse air & hydraulic brake school and reverse flow we were told is not a good practice as it is old fluid that has been heated and cooled many cycles and this causes condensation. We were told better to crack the bleed valve and expelled the old fluid!
The reason we dont do that up here in northern ny or at least i dont do that i cant speak for everyone, is because with the rust issues sometimes cracking a bleeder when u dont have too can open up a whole nother nightmare. Its not as simple as jist cracking open a bleeder around here. Besides ive done brakes like this for years and never once has an issue.
@@dylankinch2735
Well your lucky!
In the medium and heavy truck industry (26,000 lbs and to 80,000lbs) you have to sign off on the repair. If a problem arise you can beheld liable too the point of vehicular homicide!!!!
So to me shortcut could cost a life and it not worth the chance!!!! It could very well be your family!!!
And the units I worked on ran Canada to the US southern border.
My son had the same issue with his 2015 Dodge Durango. We went all over town looking for and 11mm allen. Finally found a MAC tool man who would meet us at his home gate and sell us the socket. Not made by MAC mind you but made in China but priced like a MAC
The bridge is out?? On the way to the ice cream shop??? Say WHAT?!?!?
I'd call that an EMERGENCY.... I bet NOW you wish you woulda got your own Taylor Ice Cream Machine.... Heh heh!
Dodge Challenger! hahaha! I did the fuel pumps in mine the other day.... omg. Now, to a superpro ace tech like yourself, I'm sure it's a yawner, but to a home gamer like me, holy crap. That tank lock ring, SO glad I bought the OTC tool... (OTC Tank Lock Ring Tool, #6599, bought on amazon, not a sponsor, is actually a nice tool.) Still needed a breaker bar, but I got those off... then the whole thing, with, tie a string to the lines, pull out the passenger side pump, untie your string, tie it to the new lines, pull the new lines on the new pump back through with the string.... Hahahah! I was like, are you kidding me?? Is this really what they do??
But I got them in, and it is no longer a Dodge Paperweight. It runs. It is alive. It's an SRT8 again. It's actually running really good. And there's no leaks, no gas smell, so I guess I got the new O-rings on, and got the lock rings back on properly....
I hate the smell of gasoline anyways, so I had the whole backseat area covered in plastic & beach towels, lest a drop of gas touch my pristine interior on my precious toy summer car.... I'll tell you what, I'm definitely older than you, but, crawling in & out of that teeny backseat 100 times and contorting around like a Cirque De Soleil performer almost killed me. Holy crap. I took an extra pain pill this morning. I have muscles I didn't even know I had, in some strange places, that are doing a lot of complaining this morning....
I'm sure you are not impressed, and I'm sure you could do that job in your sleep. That is not the point. The point, Sir, is that, watching your videos, has given me the confidence, to take a run at jobs like that... and, I saved $1500 bucks, doing it myself, so, Thank You Sir. Thank you for doing what you do. I appreciate it, and I hope you keep it up.
If you can do it.... I can do it. I'm real sore, but I'm feeling pretty smug about doing it myself.... Heh heh heh!
Patrick Morrissey I feel your pain! I'm 51 years young (or so I thought!) myself, and have a part time shop for a few extra $ on the side. The job I had last Friday was nowhere near as complicated, but, just as painful for a day or two, as yours. I replaced the shift tube and plunger assembly in a friends 2001 Ford Ranger. 4 hours of laying upside down, standing on my head, and working blind under the dash got the job done. 5 days later, the muscles I'd forgotten about feel better, however, I can still feel where the drivers side seat belt buckle was digging into my ribs!
I also had a "ya big dummy" moment as I was putting it back together. Since the 2 T-15 screws holding the hood release were the hardest to get out (except for the 2 that you have to take out from behind the column to remove the assembly that I'd already put back in), I figured I'd put them back in first. When I went to replace the plastic trim piece on the bottom of the dash, I remembered that those 2 screws are the ones that secure the middle of the trim. I literally crawled out of the cab, hung my head in shame and said to myself "YA BIG DUMMY"!
Anyway, the job got done and the truck is back on the road doing truck stuff. As always, I congratulated myself with a few cold beverages after finishing.
@@MikeBrown-ii3pt Ohhhh My.... hahahaha! I hate crawling under the dash. My "big dummy" moment came as I wrapped it up.... I got it together somewhat, and thought I'd try it, just to make sure. Car cranks and cranks, sputters, nothing. Fuel gauge on E. I'm like, what in the thunder..... omg. I did not go through this, for it to not work.... Then the little light bulb goes on over my head.... Ohhh yeah that's right, I pumped out all the gas first, so I wouldn't be splashing around in gas the whole time.... Maybe I should pour that back in??? Yeah, maybe.... Pour the gas back in.... Starts right up with authority.... Hahahaha! Ahhh, sometimes I'm glad no one is filming me do these things.... Hahaha! Yeah, cold drinks & cigars are an important part of the process at the end.... Yeah, turning 40 wasn't bad... 50 was a little worse. Yesterday was my 8th birthday. 8 years since I got my stent. So besides that, and the herniated disc, and the knee, and the neck, it's going great, yeah.... Hahahahahhaha! It gets tougher... Your mind says yeah man, let's do this.... Your body, has other ideas....
Patrick Morrissey I hear ya brother! I've had the light bulb come on many times! As far as the pain/suffering goes, it's like the old Toby Keith song "As Good As I Once Was" says...My body says you can't do this boy but my mind says ohhh yes you can!
Personally, I don't own/drive anything newer than 1994 (except my semi tractor-I'm an owner operator as my full time job). Younger people ask me why I don't buy new vehicles every few years instead of fixing my old stuff. I always give them 2 reasons. 1) I don't want to, even though I can afford too. 2) Most newer vehicles have no soul!
Nothing against you or your Challenger because even though I'm a GM guy, I've never liked the 1st gen Camaro, which GM obviously went for with the new ones, and, while the Mustangs aren't bad looking, I just don't identify with them. However, my wife and I had a Challenger as a rental car for a few days last summer while visiting our daughter and twin grandsons in another state. I'm not ashamed to admit that I "connected" with that car! As we were returning that black beauty at the airport, she caught me looking back and said "You wanna keep it don't you? I do too!" Apparently, she'd "connected" with it too! My wife is also a gear head, gotta love her lol!
have used STP for never seize and brake lube. never had a problem. and it was stikll there when pads were changed.
I work at a Toyota dealership and have never seen brakes not use bolts luckily and i'm lucky enough to have an 11mm allen socket lol I picked it up at the pawn shop
Can never have enough tools! Snappy should be rolling up any minute.
Oh, did you find anything else why you were under there?
âAll depends how much you wanna spendâ.
Fucking rape truck đđđđ
Donuts coffee or booze đ I'm dead
Love your videos, Eric. Referencing this video to do my 2017 Grand Cherokee tomorrow morning. Not only did I have to order an 11mm hex socket, but the caliper bracket is a Torx E20. Had to order that one too!
Keep up the good work my man!
Eric this is why I love your brake videos. Sometimes you just have to let it out. Somedays just flat out suck. Hope your day improves. Artie. Go get a strawberry sundae and enjoy â€ïžïž
They have to keep the tool makers happy!!
That "song" you were singing...i sing that same song at least once a week LOL...
Got to go the long way to the ice cream shop all summer? That's a soft serve sign.
If you ever get stuck for an 11mm Allen, a good tip is alot of medium size chisels and centre punches have an 11mm hex handle. You can cut them down and use in a Socket.
I just love a brake job in the morning...smells like victory!!
Hat's off to you Eric!
I agree wit e13c7r0nic comment, really enjoy watching & listening while you work. You are a lot cleaner than I sometimes am.
Great job Eric.
You should do one of those "Air suspension" compressor replacements on one of these.... Really useful
LMAO that's a "fun" job. Replacing the suspension control module is even more fun. (it's the programming and setup that causes word to flow)
@@meabob Money grab.... 3k from the dealer.... Like who thought air suspension on an off-road capable SUV was a good idea to begin with
My Grandpa used to say I'm so fare behind I thank I'm ahead . It's great to be busy . Remember safety is number one in your shop.
The road tear up machines are called a pavement mill.
Thanks for the video.
Really impressed with your multiple talents - you know "how to do it" and you know how to present your skills in a very entertaining and understandable manner. (Though, I must admit to having occasional beverage control issues when you explain some subtle nuance of the problem at hand.) Please permit me to make a very small criticism, sometimes I sense that you don't know which tool to use. Exhibit A: the 11mm Allen Socket requirement to do the '14 Grand Chereokee brake job - I really think that the secondary use of your small magnetic light should have been employed during the repair as it may have made it a little easier for you to deal with. Just a suggestion! đđ
I said Iâd watch every brake job video youâll make...so here I am đș
Its all fun and games with that ice cream, until that metabolism kicks in and your on to adding pounds! ;)
more like when the metabolism checks out.
Wow, they reuse the grindings from the road? I never really thought about it but it makes sense. One of our maintenance guys at work has a connection with someone at the city road department and they are more than happy to drop off a couple dump trucks full of that stuff if they're doing any work on this end of town. Saves them from having to haul it as far. We use it on our gravel parking areas when they need a refresh.
