@11:30 maybe not everyone knows, so I decided to remind. Before open master Cylinder and remove some Brake Fluid from it. I used plastic 20 mm syringe and removed about 40 ml, maybe more, since the cylinder in my case is not even yet.

Great video! Covers the basics very well. Very straight forward! Thanks for Sharing!

It looks like only one caliper slider pin had/has rubber on the pin, while the other was just metal with no rubber on the pin?

@8:55 May I know what exactly Brake Grease was used in this project. There are a lot of discussions online which grease is better. The one which is popular (actually it is not the grease, but silicon paste) 3M Silicone Paste is a transparent product. But 3M is only for Caliper Slide Pins, since it dries out and you can't put it on brakes outside. The one which is used in this film is dark grey or off black. Some brake greases are designed to be only for metal-to-metal contact, since they will damage rubber after some time. I have Permatex Ceramic Extreme Brake Parts Lubricant, which is good for metal and rubber. In my previous brake projects I always put that transparent 3M inside of the boots and Permatex Copper Anti -Seize outside (on contact points of the Brake pads). Now I plan to use Ceramic Extreme instead of Copper, but anyway it would be good to know, what is that black grease which was used in this film. Thank you for the great film, which I'm using to install new Brake Pads and Rotors on our 2009 Nissan Sentra.

@4:17, 4:28 - Ribbed side of the Sleder Boot goes to the Caliper, and @ 9:12, it is put on in the opposite to how it was originally direction. And it seems to make more sense, since that not ribbed part goes more tight around the hole for the Sliding Pins of the caliper. That ribbed part wouldn't that tight as the opposite one. The boots of my bracket were installed like it was installed on this car (fm this film) originally. Did the previous mechanic made a mistake and installed them in wrong direction? Thank you.

Very informative and detailed instructions, Thank you!

[@olenaerhardt7725]

@4:28 I noticed that the Topper Slider Pin is different from the Bottom Slider Pin. The Topper Slider Pin doesn't have a short sleeve (plastic or rubber), like the Bottom Sleder Pin has. I've received a Brake set with new Sleder Pin Boots, and the set has only 2 pieces of those small sleaves, while there are 4 boots. Is it important, which Slider Pin of those 2 goes on top and which on the bottom? Thank you.

So you don’t have to open the brake fluid reservoir ?

[@mrcolemanj100]

Great video thanks for putting a video to the instructions

[@olenaerhardt7725]

@ 10:56 and 13:07 Can just Blue Thread Locker be applied, since it will be very hard to apply heat in that area? Or if it is very small amount, then it is O'K to remove the bolts w/Red Thread locker without heat? Thank you for the great film. We have 2009 Nissan Sentra.

+@olenaerhardt7725 You can blue thread locker, however, keep in mind that blue is designed to easily be replaceable with common tools, whereas red is a more permanent fix.
