True, I usually do, but there was rain forecasted. I was trying to rush and hurry so we don’t get wet, but we still got wet because it started raining. Thanks for the tip. Section is more informative than the video itself a lot of the times.

I have no reason to be upset! Because people like you teach people like me things that I missed or didn’t know…I post videos up, not because I o ow it all but because I’m teaching basics and learning advanced from the comments! I appreciate you 🤝🏼

I completely forgot you can 😂 just did mine the other day and had to bust out the induction bolt heater. Dont forget to grease those slide float pins and shims!

Also you might want to change your brake fluid and observe as you bleed them if adequate fluid is coming out from each bleeder because that also causes heat and marks on the rotor if brake lines are swelling shut from age, and I know you want to keep your beautiful assistant safe when she rides with you 👍

Yes that is my next project to change all the fluids on the Mercury, coolant flush, brake fluid, power steering fluid…Thanks Robert

Ceramic brake pads?How they are work "on wet "?
@knnbevin52092 ай бұрын
Just a FYI if you want to get the most life out of your brake jobs with out rotors warping make sure you clean all rust off of the hubs before you install new rotors & check to make sure caliper slide pins move freely lube them up.

Greta tip, I will definitely go back and double check the slide pins. 🤝🏼

4:48 I just wanted to throw this out there to you on my Vic's I found for longevity and quality and overall Bang for your Buck the slotted Rotors and Ceramic pads by I think Best Stop I could be wrong on the Name but it's offered on Rock Auto May cost slightly more but better braking and I found out no warping plus the main reason for Ceramic pads is because regular pads not only prematurely Heat up and warp Rotors but like in your section of the video they start Eating the Rotor like Wolverine 😂

You didn’t have to push the piston back before removing the pads?
@LoveWhatYouDrive2 ай бұрын
No, just have to wiggle it out. It will come out, the pads are flat so it should just slip right off.
