How to Change Rear Brakes and Rotors 2007-2014 GMC Yukon Tahoe Silverado Sierra

[@ahmedkamla2109]

Thank you for taking the time to make the video. Very helpful.

Those caliper bracket bolts are torqued to an insane torque spec from the factory. More than the ball joint torque specs!!

[@davecarpenter4917]

I think once you're in that deep, its a good idea to pull the slider pins out to clean and lube (hi temp brake grease) and also replace the boots if they're torn. Sticky/dry pins can cause one pad to wear much faster than the other pad on same wheel.

[@mack606]

Silicone brake grease on them pins

[@davidb.2603]

Hi, remember when instaling the pads you have to make sure the wear indicator is located against the driving forward disc rotation, if the one you are installing is in the oposite side(up or down), then it is for the wheel on the other side of the truck, also take in mind you need brake grease, any other will flow with heat and damage the pads in daly use.

Made both of these errors since I was following step by step. Hope any other noobies catch this comment so they don't miss as well.

I bought a 2' piece of conduit piping to get better leverage to break loose the bracket bolts. Worked well.

[@jimtidmorejr7891]

My rear passenger brake caliper bracket bolts came out easy. But the rear driver brake caliper bracket bolts using PB BLASTER, a 1/2 breaker bar, cheater pipe, hammer and muscle were not budging. Had to use heat to get those two bolts you mentioned loose. It was like they used "red" permanent locktight on those two bolts. (The driver side bolts are difficult because it's harder to get good leverage on that side).

Great video, wished he would have shown how difficult it was to break the nut on the calibers.

[@MrAwsomeshot]

aint no thang with a 24" breaker bar with another 36" of pipe on it haha

Thanks! Doing mine for first time this weekend.

Hi. Do you happen to know the necessary tools to change the front and rear brake pads for a 2007 GMC Yukon Denali 6.0 liter engine? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[@mack606]

South Carolina in the building

[@mariom1090]

You took out the clips holding the rotors when u put the new ones do u put back new clips or u don't need them

[@TheRykerDane]

You can put the clips in if you want. they are warning clips for when the pad is thin

[@martinevans4002]

​@@TheRykerDaneHe is asking about the copper clips on the stud that hold the rotor in place

[@freds9231]

After changing out pads on my 2007 Chevy Suburban and going for a test drive, the driver side rotor was extremely hot compared to the passenger side (450 degrees F using my infrared temp gun). Any idea why the overheating condition on the one side only (NOTE: I took everything apart to ensure correct installation)

[@20tea]

Any issues with the e brake hanging up that caliper? You figure it out?

[@m1cajah]

Why did you decide to replace the rotors? How can you tell if they NEED it? Also, why didn’t you replace the copper clip like on the OEM?

[@martinevans4002]

He took the rotors in to be turned and they were worn past the point where they could be turned.

[@PledgeAllegianceFlagCompany]

Best video yet. Thank you so much

[@TheRykerDane]

Glad you liked it!

​@@TheRykerDaneI have a 2014 Silverado. My rear Rotors are Stuck on. Even hitting with the hammer. Yours just pulled off. How can I get mine off?

[@zenbran]

Can not get the caliper bracket bolts even with penetration oil and a breaker bar

[@caseylowry4229]

Any tips to breaking those bolts free😫 I literally tried For hours and still couldn’t get one off

[@catherineharris4746]

Thank You!👍👍👍

[@SG-ub3hs]

Brake pad with wear indicator, u have put on outside, it is supposed to be inside or else caliper will not fit.

[@TheRykerDane]

Some are different but the wear indicator is usually on both sides

[@jonbourgoyne4471]

Why no body told me to make sure the parking brake was off 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@McAdamsMechanics]

No greasing the anything? 😭

[@Jasonrcsd]

Nice video, but I'm pretty sure the socket is metric not standard.

[@pacman151]

Thanks 👍🏾

[@bittersweetchronicles]

What would happen if I forgot to open the brake fluid reservoir?

[@giuseppesinibaldo2796]

I never do. You can just bleed them later on or they may end up being completely fine

[@martinevans4002]

The cap might pop off and maybe splash some brake fluid in the engine compartment.

[@mattr7715]

Awesome. Thanks..

[@yolo4dolo28]

Great video I'm I. Mine

[@LawrenceWarren]

I came here to see which way the rear bolt came out and it was skipped... on to another video

[@markracine1653]

*13 mm. There are no standard bolts on gm vehicles.

[@scratchoffkinggetmoney9557]

But u aint show how u got the Brake Bracket off 😎😎😎

[@quinjes5]

Truth... like it if you showed where you jacked the car up and where you placed the stand, I am not sure on the back. Sorry new do the DIY and don't want to mess up

[@Uneducatedcapitalist]

jack it up on the frame that runs down the side of vehicle. Not door the thick steel frame

[@quinjes5]

@@Uneducatedcapitalist I got a 2014 Yukon and it has that braket where behind the back door to the rear axle, and the dealership has told me not to jack it up from behind that point. I'm sorry I forgot to mention that...
