Dude, that's an awesome video. I'm not a mechanic but I'm not a moron either. Your video was very helpful and easy to understand and made it much easier for me to do the job myself, which I did and it turned out great!

[@klowny1969]

Glad i was able to help :) thanks for watching

[@richiev63]

Just wanted to thank you for the video. I did my pads a couple of weeks ago after watching this. It's just as easy as it looks.

+Rich V awesome thanks for watching and commenting

Just before the new rotor goes on, the area around the wheel studs must be cleaned spotless and preferably copper greased to prevent it seizing in future.. Any pieces of dirt between the rotor and the mounting face will cause the rotor not sit true and cause DTV (disc thickness variation) when the pad wears one area and also warps it creating the pedal pulsing that a lot are familiar with. To take this to its ultimate level that some shops do (mine!) is install a dial gauge and runout should not exceed 2 to 5 thousandths of an inch. According to latest statistics, about 90% of rotors returned faulty are like that because of incorrect fitting. Hope this helps.

Great video! Thank you for making changing my rotors and pads easy, and saving me a bunch of money!!!

[@MJones_]

What size of torque wrench should I buy to take out caliper brake bolts? 1/2 inch torque wrench?

[@Solid91us]

thanks for the video, very helpful for "do it yourselfers" the local shop wanted over $200 for a break job.

[@klowny1969]

Yes it can get very expensive..thanks for watching

[@6joel4]

doing my friends camaro tmrw all around. if I'm just doing the pads can i get away with not taking the calipers off and just knocking the pins out? do you think the Pistons will get in the way? is there a way to push them in with the calipers still on without scratching the rotors or tearing the boots? just curious because we're gonna be short on time. thanks in advance.

[@tomdarrohn6138]

Thanks bro, this was really helpful. However, the 2015 RS didn't have pins, just bolts similar to the front. It was pretty easy to change out.

The most informative videos on the youtube😃

[@klowny1969]

Thank u

[@KapoMusic]

Is this the same for v6 camaro, something about not being brembo and single piston or something,

[@ultimatemexican]

Great video, With the rear rotors off how can the parking brake be adjusted to make it tighten up a bit? My parking brake handle pulls all the way up and the car still moves while in drive? Thanks

[@klowny1969]

ultimatemexican some cars have an adjustment underneath the vehicle

[@Barnekkid]

Klowny, do these rotors perform better than the oe, or is it just for looks?

[@klowny1969]

Hey..yes they do perform better..however the pads may also wear out a little faster..thnx for watching

[@Shane-Singleton]

thanks for the vids on the brakes, Klowny. About to do all 4 corners on my 2012 SS for the first time and it looks like this is going to be much easier with the brembo calipers being top-loaders.

[@klowny1969]

yup it is..thanks for watching and commenting

[@Shane-Singleton]

Got it done over the weekend. It was stupid easy! Thanks again Klowny!

[@klowny1969]

awesome!

[@srp960]

Great video!! You make it look easy. It appears the procedure is the same for front and back..right?. Is this the same for an SS? Can I just replace the pads without removing the rotors? I don't think I need to do anything to the rotors.

[@klowny1969]

Steven Patrick should be the same..u can replace just the pads if the rotors are good

[@TheAtellez11]

Question after change disc and pad ,you have bleed the brakes front and rear ! Or no ?

[@klowny1969]

Robert C it is a good idea

[@iannamico]

EXCELLENT VIDEO!!! Didn't have to sit through 45 minutes of over explaining nonsense like most DIY vids!! sub'd

[@klowny1969]

N. I. lol thanks

[@Dahita]

This is an awesome video. Thanks a lot man, I really appreciate your work.

[@klowny1969]

Thanks

[@josecazares2191]

What is that tool called to take the pins out from the pads?

[@klowny1969]

Jose Cazares its a punch.. thanks for watching and commenting

[@josecazares2191]

klowny1969 can you put loctite on the caliper bolts?

[@Gewy]

I used a drill bit that was just the right size only because I discovered I didn't have a punch AFTER I took the wheels off and didn't feel like walking to the store, lol.

[@estherbarnes5761]

Hell yeah thanks for both videos

[@klowny1969]

You got it..don't forget to subscribe

[@josecazares2191]

I need your help one of my rotors is stuck and won't come out, any suggestions

[@klowny1969]

Jose Cazares couple things u can do..spray wd40 into the lug holes..and whack it really hard with a sledge on the face of the rotor..can use heat..can also put bolts through the caliper holes and try pushing the rotor off

[@josecazares2191]

klowny1969 what can of bolts can I use to pop it off from the back?

[@klowny1969]

Jose Cazares use thick bolts..through the caliper mounting holes..but dont use too much tension..u might crack the ears..just enough tension, and hammer it at the same time

[@josecazares2191]

klowny1969 what about a jaw gear puller?

[@klowny1969]

Jose Cazares u might brake the rotor at the edges

[@ScorpioJSG]

helpful video thanks for making and sharing

[@klowny1969]

[@juniorarzate276]

[@klowny1969]

[@juniorarzate276]

[@fernsader9261]

Thanks brother!

[@gronaldo7gb]

@Klowny1969 will this apply to a v6 Camaro?

[@klowny1969]

gronaldo7gb should be the same

[@gronaldo7gb]

klowny1969 is the lug in the middle of the 5 22m lugs a lug key cause I can't seem to even take off my tire

[@klowny1969]

gronaldo7gb nope..i have a vid on how to take off a stuck tire..try kicking it off

[@gronaldo7gb]

klowny1969 I'll look at the video , I tried kicking it as well but it didn't work 😪

[@w0584]

Thanks. I think I can do this

[@InFiD3ViL1]

Great videos, but looks like you recorded it using a potato. Doing my Stop Tech rotors/pads today on my 2010 SS. Thanks!

[@klowny1969]

InFiD3ViL yeah the camera sucked..check out my newer videos..thanks for watching

[@0711boomer]

My 2015 Camaro does not have the same brakes as this one. Lol their is no pin holding break pads in except for a 18mm socket to unbolt them lol

[@tommcannally1895]

It only applies to the Brembos.

[@sethkaufman2107]

He didn't clean the rotor with brake clean before installing it 🤦

[@SirPaxson]

Rust was covering screws

[@ChaseWhoDat]

You didn't knock the pins in all the way

[@klowny1969]

ChaseWhoDat yup i did

[@jdm2000ek]

My camaro doesn’t have those pins

[@SirPaxson]

I was so wrong.

[@SirPaxson]

Lies. In the process of taking rotors off rear end, front had different pad clamps and brackets

[@klowny1969]

frag gasm uh huh

[@SirPaxson]

Mine doesn’t have the screw in the rear rotors? Just the nut in the center of rotor? It’s not budging

[@SirPaxson]

Has a bit of rust on it
