Thanks for the assist, but as Dad used to say, "Just the same, only different." Found that I needed a 3/8 inch Allen type caliper socket instead of a T-55 and the first pads that I purchased from AutoZone had ears on them like yours and didn't fit. Was told that they do have a Severe Duty pad set for about twice the price ($65) that they could order. Went down the street to O'Reilly and they had the pads I needed in stock for $35. Discovered that if the vehicle has rear drum brakes, it has a different style of pad. After that (and using a piston compression tool that I borrowed from my brother) it went smoothly. Just wanted to give others a heads-up that they might run into these problems.

The T55 thing pissed me off so badly. I have torx and star crap bits and none of them fit. I bought a set of star bits thinking one would fit and guess what? T50 was the biggest one they had. GM HATES it's customers. there is no reason to put that POS but there. Just used a 3/8 nut. Why do they do this to us?

just an awesome video dude - easy to follow - clear instructions - sincere thx

[@Mikey-wf9py]

Some brands both pads only have one warning pin. Make sure on those you have the inside one facing down and look outside one facing up

[@williamwatson3567]

Note : I Only Had to Pull Off the Caliper... ( using a T-55 Socket Torx ). Then , Pried out the Disc Pads, Re- Loaded the New Pads,then Replaced the Caliper, after Compressing the Piston Cups... There was No Need to Remove the 18mm Bolts, To Remove the Caliper Brackets. ( Just the Caliper Off/ On and Your Done. Make Sure to Pump Your Brake Pedal, and Verify that the Master Cylinder is Full, When You are All Finished. You're Welcome, BillinL.A. 12-05-2021.

Thank you for this, because I was going to ask the exact question that you just answered!

[@DCunningham-in6bf]

I see the star bolts for the calipers. Is there a way to replace them with 1/2 or 9/16 (or similar) so I don't have to use that star tool to get them off?

[@alfonsotorres4144]

Your turning this into a project

[@popeyote4110]

Should i bleed brake system after this?

[@thesetruths1404]

80 ft lbs seems like a lot for those t55 torx. Ya sure that's right?

[@ajwoods86]

Is this for the same set up for an 02 Yukon Denali AWD?

[@JS-jv6rg]

Would it have been a good ideal to replace or at least grease the caliper pistons? To avoid uneven wear on pads? I think brakes need to be air bleed out, did not see that part.

Thank you! 🤠

[@Gshock714]

Dang 80 ft lbs for caliper guide pins is a lot thats the torque specs for wheel lug nuts on Honda,Toyota,Hyundai cars

"Let me show you how much of a mechanic I really am." Like what the heck dude. Nobody does half of this. We dont care we just want the job done.

[@travishebert4314]

I use the sockets you said and the lug nuts were not 18 mm they were 7/8's.. I thought you knew what you were doing. I guess the joke was on me. Maybe you should find another line of work.
