I couldn't imagine how much nicer the world would be if all techs replaced only the problem parts. It is a lost art, nice work.

[@DustyJ]

Right? I just spent nearly $2,000 on new brakes and rotors replacement and full fluid replacement. Two days later I had no brakes. Now they want another $400 for a leaking gasket they missed.

@@DustyJ wtf dude, thats unreal....

[@---ny4ys]

Lol thats because youre clueless. Reality is its more efficient and cheaper to replace the whole caliper with a reman then to do the seals yourself. 2 remanned calipers for a car this old are 80 total. The seals are about 20/25. Thats assuming you dont have to replace the piston which you shouldnt really be sanding to begin with. It you do the piston will run you about 30 or 40 bucks each. Now do the math

If shops work like this more often I would have absolutely no problem paying.

[@jakensdieudonne3505]

Do you have to change both tire or just one, plz answer that

[@jakensdieudonne3505]

I'm lost, what did he use the rag for, did he push it with his finger or a tool,?

[@KavoTheGodd]

Red rubber grease is used for the pistons and I think he used that blue threadless for the bolts

[@JESUSVALDEZCARRANZA]

Wow thats great work

[@reza_dc2]

whats the difference between the blue grease you put on the piston and the red grease you used for the pins?

[@temirtaragay8932]

You can search inline. He is nit going to answer that, apparently.

[@lilsteppa_]

@@temirtaragay8932well neither were we lmao

[@venomtwoohnine3192]

How I get it out without access to compressed air?

[@shmeeglebeats8403]

Before removing caliper pump brakes till piston comes out

[@Imdenee]

What did you use to compress the caliper??

[@thedudeman0606]

Just looked like a metal pipe. Really all you’d need

[@eyemvee5273]

Is it the same with motorcycle?

[@Ladosligese]

yes pretty much just simpler

[@freddyg9026]

Not the best tool to be pushing the seal in with.

[@ntnblr]

Never clean with water

[@KavoTheGodd]

Exactly I thought that's what brake cleaner for

[@railroad6601]

agree

[@luisponce1472]

Water Won't harm anything People go off Roading in mud and then have to Wash it with Water

[@hermanrogers1325]

Now I see it he used two copper washers

[@atillaozturk7075]

calipers should only be cleaned out with a brake cleaner not water...better yet never use any cleaner....just give it a good wipe.

[@vp4419]

yes let's all use a pick to push rubber seals. great idea!

[@Ladosligese]

nothing at all wrong with that .. as long as you are carefull

[@createcrate1504]

lol it’s the main reason I’m here.

[@gasisthepastendoil]

Hand to soak mine in vinegar and salt all night to get the rest out of the grooves rust
