I think a lot of the people who get these and complain about braking power need to also adjust their caliper

[@xxguccix9022]

I love you dude... My brakes would not squeeze for shit. Thanks G

[@randolph7214]

You the man bub. Straight to the point, easy explanation, and quick fix. Thanks

What is the skinny brake pad for

[@PaulEllinger]

Thanks. Your explanation made perfect sense!

[@KieferYager]

Wonderful Help, Thank you, you give multiple examples and show how to do everything. 5 Stars and a Like

[@jokezpaine3408]

alright for anyone who hasn't figured out how to get the pin out. you have to first take the brake adjustable bolt off fully because it's in the way of the pin coming out. now take apart the caliper and locate the pin under the plate of the pad, and put the caliper in a vice and take a screwdriver and hammer and bang the pin out. it has rivets in the pin to hold it in place so that's why it's hard to get out.

[@xxguccix9022]

Thanks G

[@patrickbarense5548]

[@jokezpaine3408]

Can you make a video on how to put a brack calpet

[@doubtmonger7509]

Ive inherited a basket case. No brakes right now. And aside from other obvious izzues in that dept i was wondering if the caliper is supposed to be floating or bolted. My guess is floating, i cant see how it would escape, but the previous owner bolted it in.

[@scootermichelli9885]

Please make a video on changing the pads!

[@jokezpaine3408]

ya I can't get that pin out to change the throw. I don't wanna brake it but it's tough af. how?

[@juicecounty714]

U da man bro.thanks boss

[@GallagherRC]

I put a one of these brake calipers with a cable on my vintage go cart. Everything is brand new. It works, but not very well. I’ve adjusted and re adjusted, checked and double checked. Arrow is pointed towards the front of the cart. I do not know what else to do. The tires should lock up. I have to push so hard and I barely slow down. Thank you!

[@franktrejos3557]

Thanks, we’ll explain!

[@dr.awkward9075]

Help! My brakes won't catch & when I took the caliper off one of the brake pads is stuck.

[@Motor_Enthusiastic]

Question what is the skinny brake pad for

[@joefergus9153]

Would somthing like this work on a quad?

[@ttv.bigboygeorgeree3587]

what do you do if the brakes only work backwards. so like it realises when I press.

[@mickeymouse2.048]

Flip the brake arm

[@derrickcrayton7254]

What size is the adjustment Bolt

[@woodcdd]

I've adjusted and replaced pads...still will not stop when driving. Any other suggestions?

[@itsmeyouknow734]

How do u take that pin out to switch the brake arm

[@johnhall2747]

How do I remove the pin to adjust the arm??:( Please help

[@kmart014]

hey my disc rubs against the pads when i roll my go kart. it isnt a clean smooth roll. how can I stop the disc from rubbing but also keep the stopping quality high? help

[@mickeymouse2.048]

Return spring on the caliper arm fixed that issue for me. Hope it helps.

[@motorhead7869]

What's the one dude from The Office he looks just like them

[@jackchosich1126]

How do you remove to pin to switch the direction of the way the arm moves

[@angel-no8uo]

jack chosich did you ever find out how?

[@cripplekid0902]

Yes did you?

[@patrickbarense5548]

I need to figure this out?? I can’t get the pin out

[@chrisg758]

The pin is serrated and pushed into the aluminum, hammer it out with a nail punch or screwdriver, you’ll be able to push it into the hole on the other side and hammer it in, just did this last week.

[@mrpeterniez]

Did anyone replace the pads? If so, what's the procedure? Are the Pads glued on or they just stay in place

[@gaydarci4593]

Thay stay in place, because the ends of them are magnets))))

I love when people make these videos use improper tools for the job then demonstrate their lack of skills on how to actually use that tool. SMDH
