- This video I change the front brake pads and rotors with this 2020 Toyota Tacoma TRD 4x4. There are other videos on CZcams how to do this, but they leave out some critical items. I show you the details with leaving nothing at risk. Watch this video all the way through and the process should go smooth and easy the first time. This also covers many other years and models of Toyota’s.

If you dont have a specialized tool to compress caliper pistons, you can use the old pads and a c clamp to achieve the same thing, you just have switch around several times while compressing as the pistons pop out a bit on the other side from the one that is compressing.
Great video, The details on the pins, The correct direction of the pads, The correct order of the back plates the striped and the solid, That's exactly what I was looking for. Obviously there are tons of videos out there none of them explain the details correctly. Everyone knows there's only three screws and that's it, but what you explained was the most important part of it which most diy folks miss. Even some certified mechanics miss them.
Thank you I appreciate it
Excellent demonstration. Thanks.
Good video saved me a lot of time getting the rotors off with the 8mm bolt and good clip explanation
Much appreciated! Very informative and detailed. About to tackle mine.
Awesome video - great step by step instruction!
Thank you for this video it is very informative. My brakes are due and I was about to tackle it myself. I am glad I watched your video first. Also thanks for showing the jack points. That was my other question.
That was a pleasure to watch
Informative, well done, and clearly explained.
VERY DETAILED VIDEO. THANKS!
Very well made video. Helpful.
Thanks.
Super helpful. Thank you so much.
You did a great Job
Thanks, I'm doing the same to my 2020 👍
Good and to the point video, thanks
Now that was well done.
Awesome job and great level of detail.
Well done video, thanks
Just did mine! Thank you so much for sharing this step by step vid.
How long did it take?
@@HoffaJediabout 3.5 hrs. Impact wrench is helpful. Make a tool list first. The cylinder press could be replaced by 2 flat screwdrivers pushing the old pads evenly. I found the torque specs online.
Thanks so much your video was very helpful for me you deserve a 10 God Bless you.
Nice i didnt know about that tool. I use channel locks but that looks better
Thanks for this, all the details were much appreciated. Made the replacement a no-brainer for a novice like me!
Perfect...
My 2020 in Southern Ontario. 90k. Pins were so rusted they were a bitch to get out. And where the pads go, was so rusted, the outside ones weren't even moving back and forth.
Had to file down everything. Spray, and covered in anti seize. Everything is moving well, and the truck is braking a million times better
I may be wrong but I believe the brake line bolt is an 8 mm. Use that to take off rotor
Good video but you forgot to pump the brake pedal so it adjust to the new brakes pads and also torque the bolts holding the calipers I think they are to 90 foot pounds thanks for the video
Thanx
Not sure if this has been commented or not. But as far as the 8MM bolt. you can just use a bolt from the skid plate.
What the name of the device that you used for the piston!
Forums say 8mm x 1.25 for the “rotor release” bolt.
Can you damage the caliper when compressing the piston in any way or the fluid reservoir
Does anyone know what the torque spec is for the brake line bracket bolt? Thanks!
So the pads have the two metal backing plates. The vented ones and the solid ones. Do they need both or do the solid ones suffice?
The bolt from your Break line bracket is 8M and fits the threaded holes in the rotor
Best channel ever 🎉❤
What did you torque the caliper nuts to?
Can you let us know what the Torque is on two Caliper bolts?
What were the threads on the 8mm bolts you bought? Just wondering if it was a certain kind or doesn't matter or that's the only thread pattern the store had? I am changing brakes tomorrow and want to have everything ahead of time. Thanks and great video.
You should use brake grease on the back and contact edges of brake pads and pins to prevent brake squeal.
Terrific camera work! Do the slide pins need to be lubricated? Cleaned with superfine steel wool? Similarly, do the edges of the brake pads need a thin layer of brake grease? Please excuse my ignorance as the only brake work I have done involved removable caliper pins that had to be greased with silicone based grease and then the caliper bracket had clips where the pads slide and that also needs a small amount of grease. I will look up the torque specs and leave them here. I would suggest that you commented on putting anti-seize on the wheel hub and I have done that making removal of the rotor easier next time
Anti seize on the wheel hib would be nice but no big deal.
Great video, but don't forget to torque those caliper bolts to the proper spec!
Only detail missing/ torque specs
And gloves
🔥👍
Great video. Do I need to open up the brake fluid reservoir before I compress the pistons?
Yes. Absolutely. And as you are squeezing the calipers open the fluid will rise so be careful not to let it overflow
Noticed the brake parts aren't OEM. Any major difference using the Bosch? Thanks
I didn't see a difference. Fits fine.
What jacks do you use and lift in this video
Lift is Pittsburgh.
no anti squeal lubricant on the back of the pads and didn't lubricate the pins. please tell me why?
No need. They have been fine without.
Sounded pretty confident saying no details missed but no grease was used...
Grease for what, your hair? Don't need no grease.
So i need to bleed my breaks after the whole process? Or do i just press on the break peddle??
No need to bleed.
Did you just press the pedal??
You did miss some details! You did not include what size sockets you are using! That would've been very helpful. Thank you for the video. lol
Thank you sir. You need a camera man for better future videos. Sometime I don't need close up view. I can always watch the video again. 🙂
You missed a bit of detail in this video. Grease the pins, clean the hub, anti-seize, and torque specs. I am not trying to be rude but I am letting others know if they happen to see this.
So what are the torque specs?

@@United168990 ft lb for brake bolts
@@United1689bro missed a bit of detail in his response
What is a BUNJAY ?
This must be a NON NEW ENGLAND RUST BELT TRUCK!!!! Still.. a good video! Thanks!
no details missed? How about torque specs?
i like what your doing butt, you can't decompress the caliper without releasing pressure
No detail missed??? How about bolt sizes and torque specs? Little grease on the pads would be nice too, jeez.
U get the point on how to do the work, princess! Jeez
@@JORGEMARTINEZ-hr2ep you his gf
Haha, U want him to do the breaks and torque it for you? Big Boy
@@JORGEMARTINEZ-hr2ep Why are you answering for him? You his bitch?
Did you bleed yours after, or just press the pedal
