Changing back brakes on a Harley Davidson Dyna

[@Chripiter]

Thanks for this. I just bought a 2003 wide glide and the pads are paper thin. great video,to the point and good camera work.

[@GusMoore-j7r]

Thank You for Your Insight and Instructions Brother

[@carlosayala-u9z]

Perfect! Thanks for keeping it simple Brother..

[@jamesgordon9901]

Greaat video and thank you so much! Socket and wrench size was a big help. I'll be back brother

[@-MrRichBiker1967]

Thank you, great job, as usual Mo! that is one sick rotor, what is than 1/4 inch thick..love it!! I have 2005 fatboy, my brakes suck. the brake bracket is one piece with the axel!

[@GilstrapGarage]

Definitely entails a little bit more work. I’m glad they switched over in the later years. I’m not sure exactly how thick that rotor is, but it’s definitely heavy duty! Thanks for watching

[@team_sixthree8956]

10:07 is that normal for the caliper to have that type of play? Up and down motion? I just did my brake pads I’m getting the same issue everything is torque to spec thanks

[@GilstrapGarage]

Yeah a little play is okay because it’s a “floating caliper” but if it seems wildly excessive then your holes may be wallowed out and need to be replaced

[@team_sixthree8956]

@@GilstrapGarage thanks brotha keep up the great content 🤘🏻

[@mobkinq]

I spray painted my Dyna wheels yesterday and she. Attempting to get the caliper back on I couldn’t get the rear pad to lock in and keeps sliding out. Imma have to try again today

[@streetsean]

Doing mine this week on my softail. Thanks, great video!

[@GilstrapGarage]

🙌🏻🙌🏻 softails can be a little more involved depending on the year. The rear wheel may have to come off in order to pull the whole bracket off

[@streetsean]

@@GilstrapGarage good to know. Thanks

[@RoadGlideRick]

thank you brother this was super helpful going to do mine now!

[@robertcapozzi2934]

The reason you are getting groves a ND squeaks is your aftermarket rotor taller than stock just a little

[@wlhcrh02]

what about anti-seize or lithium grease on the back of the pad, that shuts everything up

[@bthugg69]

Just got into bikes , Ty for the vid helped a lot . 🤘🏼

[@GilstrapGarage]

No problem 👍

[@knothole5]

Man , I'm switching bars on my Dyna, legend has it you can get slack on the main harness through the fender Access hole, is that just a legend? I can't seem to get my connectors to see daylight haha

[@GilstrapGarage]

There’s usually quite a bit of wire stuffed inside the frame that can be pulled up. You can’t get your wires through the bars? Or can’t get them out of the frame?

[@knothole5]

@@GilstrapGarage can't get them out of the frame, I think there's a fold in there, I'm trying to get the connectors out haha

[@toolmaker5150]

@@knothole5 just did this. There is indeed a service loop tucked in the backbone of the frame just behind the access plate in the rear fender. I removed the rear wheel and fender for much easier access. Tie something to the loop in case you need to pull it back through. The connectors are staggered about where the seat and tank meet. Also there is an access plate on the right side near the steering neck, wires will be zip tied to it. Removing the rear tank bolt gives more room for the connectors passing through.

[@knothole5]

Thank you everyone, I think I'll unbolt a shock before removing the rear wheel,

[@vraimondi]

Extremely helpful...thanks for sharing!

[@richardmazgay7104]

whats the median cost to have harley davidson do this job?

[@trubullyzzeusfam1546]

What brand rotors do you have?

[@stevenmiller3272]

I finished my pad change but my caliper has a little wobble. Is it supposed to wobble?

[@GilstrapGarage]

Is it up and down play? It is supposed to do that a little bit on the “floating” calipers

[@PROTEUS_SEER-OF-EONS]

great video, thanks

[@bakkatnam]

How many millimeters is the 12-point quarter point inch socket?

[@wlhcrh02]

1/4

[@kenbuttone8775]

Great video. Very helpful.

[@nightmaremike1092]

Are those brake rotors any good ? Are they galfer

[@GilstrapGarage]

Yupp, galfer rotors, they were amazing

[@nightmaremike1092]

Do you know how i can get me one !? Mine is a 2006 dyna lowrider cant find them

[@omahaurbannights]

Do you live in Omaha

[@mke7876]

How many miles are on your bike

[@GilstrapGarage]

i had about 36,000 on it when i sold it

[@gingerbreadman2051]

Top man thanks very helpful

[@michalrozynski5751]

Great video thanks bro

[@GilstrapGarage]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@АскарСергалиев-м5е]

thank yuo bro

[@عبدالطيفخضير]

100% 👍

[@user-mn4ii3gi9w]

Not a very descriptive video. Not much help on how to do it right.

[@GilstrapGarage]

Maybe not. But the correct service manual for your bike will walk through it all step by step 🤙🏻

[@ronl7152]

Between this video and the manual you should be right, do you want to be spoon fed as well? I found it very helpful, thanks for taking time to create and post this video @Gilstrap Garage

[@iancianciolo6838]

My question is do I have to bleed the brakes? Or can I just pop out the old and put in the new? And good to go?

[@GilstrapGarage]

@@iancianciolo6838 as long as you don’t crack the bleeders you don’t have to bleed them

[@ketobeast8489]

If you can’t do it after watching this video you shouldn’t be wrenching on your own bike lmfao. Take it to the stealership and pay $400 🤡
