- This is exactly how to replace the rear brake pads and rotors for a Lexus RX350 2003-2008 I showed you how to preform this on the passenger side, I promise the driver's side is exactly the same. So just do the same thing for that side as well. Thank you for watching!

Make sure the parking brake is off. In rare cases the parking brake cable may to too tight and need to be loosened. This could prevent the rotor from coming off.
Great video. Great pace, easy to follow😊
Great video! U state size, torque, AND DIRECTION/PROPER LEVERAGE. Yes, to push down when loosening. I'm a senior & u don't know how many times I see ppl lifting UP. I hope u do gen 4 Prius jobs so I can get torque specs. 👍
Thanks so much for watching!
I'm sure I will at some point, but if you want them right away you can go to our website www.2carpros.com and ask a question for absolutely free!
Thanks very nice video
Why don’t you use hook to hang calipers? They are cheap and the best way to safely keep calipers lined from damage
Are you sure that you put in the brake pads in correctly? Should you put them in from "outside" instead of "inside"?
I agree, he put them in from the wrong side and damaged the springs. That's why he had to you much force to get them in place. And I do recommend to use grease where the pads meet the bracket, else your brakes will jam quite soon and brake uneven. I also recommend put some grease in the bracket hole before putting in the caliber pins. That's because of the rubber boot that else will carve away all the grease before it enters the hole, which is seen in the video. Finally you must use red grease on the pin with the rubber ring. Petrol based grease will make this ring get swollen (even the rubber boots) and cause the break to not working properly. It is also very important to check the rubber boot so it seals the pin. The pin has a groove that the boot must connect behind, and then it is hold in place. Otherwise water will come in contact with the pin and cause rust. But nice video, great light settings, quality and close ups. I wish more videos had this kind of quality.
Was wondering about this too and thought I was doing it wrong. I go from the outside as well.
@@Folet42red grease critical?
I just did mine and just did them from the front. He may not have gotten the springs all the way down but I used an Allen wrench to hold the spring down right at the opening and got them on quite easily. I had new calipers and didn't feel like disassembling just to put pads in. If I could do it from the front with the whole thing assembled I'm sure it's even easier taken apart.
