New Brake Rotor Set from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1APBR00996
Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes. This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ brake pads and rotors on your 2007-13 Toyota Tundra.

Super informative and easy to follow. One small thing that maybe you could add for Dummies like me is that the emergency brake must be OFF. Learned that the hard way.

[@TheAustinCarmichael2]

Tools needed: 1/2 inch ratchet 19mm for lugs 17mm for sliders and brake mount bolts wire brushes and wire wheel EP2 bearing grease anti-seize compound brake cleaner hammer C-clamp or F-clamp to bring brake cylinder back to 0 torque wrench for tightening everything back up

[@cffffff7321]

Electric impact will also make this job go faster once you break the bolts loose. Would also add a breaker bar to the list.

[@kevincostello1563]

Thank you for a great and easy to follow tutorial on how to do rear brakes on my 07 Tundra. This is the first time that I have ever done brakes on any vehicle that I have owned. Following your video mad it easy and successful ! Thanks again !!!!!!

[@Kenneth-kz9it]

Your video's are fast paced and cristal clear. I like how you always give the tork specifications. You have saved me a lot of time and money. Thank you for helping me keep my trucks on the road. please keep making videos.

[@brianbowick4291]

Super thorough. Super professional and watchable. Cheers!

[@1nicesonoma934]

TRQ thank you for doing these videos and supplying parts. I buy everything thru you.

[@JSambrook]

Good video. Thanks for being fast and not dragging it out with a lot of fluff.

[@oversizedoverlanding2365]

Your videos are great man. Straight to the point no nonsense. I appreciate it.

[@johnmccool6875]

awesome video, not a chance in the world any mechanics around here would be that thorough....

[@limeallens6160]

Good lesson. I just installed your kit on my 07 tundra all went well.

[@jeebs9450]

Quick and to the point! Bravo!!

[@RphC74_mo]

Very informative thanks! Also seeing this makes me glad I no longer live in the rust belt yikes!

[@rpr5385]

Great video, very well done.

[@devanh7244]

when i took the rotor off the driver side, i somehow ripped off two spring with cap things on opposite sides. im not sure how that happened but how can i avoid that happening in the future?

[@JK-hd2zb]

Torque specs should be: slide pin bolts 65 ft lbs mounting bracket bolts 70 ft lbs

[@eduardoortiz344]

why on some videos the caliper foot pounds torgue is 65 but he said 35 ,the weels aluminum some videos says 97 but he said 75

[@joruckus]

What lubricant are you using on the drum points?

[@kevinhale4921]

Fkn awesome video! Thank you so much!

[@patrickdubuc3439]

Is rotor on right direction? I thought slots should be spinning same direction as your driving forward?

[@johnspitta6725]

What kind of grease on the slider? bearing grease?

[@DukeNC]

FLIPPY DOO!! 😂 Thanks!

[@HaroldScottIII]

Does parking brake being on rotor from coming off??

[@panjonglee776]

Good thank you

[@alanaho4915]

Is this rear brake a disc or drum brake?

[@raulguzmanjr3883]

My rotors have been getting a blueish tint on certain spots what can that be

[@jonmccann1324]

No need to release e-brake?

[@user-kc2hm4pv7b]

He didn't say what to do with the two smaller clips. are they necessary?

[@driver902]

I believe your doing the passenger side. If so that rotor was the driver's side !! Those drilled and slotted rotors are side specific.

[@jessejames1920]

Glad I wasn’t the only one who seen that!

[@j-cubtv3018]

What does this mean?? 😵‍💫😵‍💫

[@j-cubtv3018]

For first timers like me, it would be nice if u showed the bottles you are using. The lubricant for example. The one I found it’s different…

[@666dynomax]

I have never used threatlocker on capiler brackets... ever... maybe i've been doing it wrong!!!

[@newjargon1697]

Thirty doll hairs , just start collecting barbie's hair. After a trip to the local plastic factory you'll have more than you'll ever need.

[@davidking283]

Torque specs are wildly off. Please review the factory service manual.

[@NEERD911]

I swallowed one of the flippydoo’s what do I do?

[@driftwoods2229]

Local shop was going to charge me $1200 for this job

[@bleckybob]

Rusty baby!!

[@clashingwithbigpapi7769]

Not the same brake system as my 2011 tundra. Much different

[@charlespratt8663]

And pump up that brake pedal to get a solid pedal before going on that test drive!

[@72caliman]

46 ft lbs?

[@DavidWilliams-mr5nl]

I've never seen this much rust!!

[@harleydavidson7097]

Thanks for convincing me there is no way in hell I am going to attempt this myself!

[@ryanseltzer8077]

Try it, it’s a super simple job! I’ve been doing my own brakes since 16 years old.

[@prakashamendra7027]

You skipped many stages of the replacement process. How to replace the parking brake shoes, step by step procedure for adjustment.

[@Rip_Fuse]

Tools ?

[@666dynomax]

154 ft lbs is wrong for that wheel, its 97. 154 is steel wheels.

[@nicktello4057]

You forgot to adjust the star wheel once the rotor was on to reset the brake shoes

[@danielb1877]

Just a little rust

[@smbrannon]

He didn't replace the caliper pin (slider) boots. The Toyota service manuals shows those as non-reusable. You'd think a parts house would remember to sell parts.... Also, what about bleeding the brakes?

[@jesus1359]

Never use parts cleaner or solvent on brake system.the right way plane water will do the job

[@armandosanchez8009]

Torque specs are way off

[@mitchellshepard9131]

Then what are they? Just saying they are way off isn’t helpful.

[@manfredvonrichthofen4738]

thats the toyota . all right ,i can tell by all the rust.
