Quiet Sunday morning until I ran into my neighbor. Single parent 2 year old daughter. Tells me lost front braked on car. Took day off because afraid to drive. Didn't need to test drive I hear metal to metal sound right front brake. Couldn't afford the repair quoted over 300. 00 for a Kia Sorento. New Pads and rotors 160. There goes my Sunday. I had them get the parts. Took the car to my buddies garage. Gave it the full ERIC O brake job. Cookie wheel rust off hub face. Blasted brackets. Brake caliper grease pins moving free etc. Return car now safe to drive more important children are safe. I A, M NOT LOOKING FOR ANY AT A BOYS HERE! Just saying if you do brakes do it the way Eric does. Clean grease as need. My payment if you are interested. Another tread in my stairway to heaven. Also a big smile and a hug from the little one/

7: 14 those rubbers have to come out, and you need to clean underneath them. Those are German ATE brakes (thanks to Daimler, and they even make a special tool for that (looks like a bottle brush Flex-Hone 22mm front 18mm for the rear) to clean out or hone the holes where those rubbers sit in. It corrodes and puts pressure on the rubber that makes your slide pins stick. Common sense to use silicone based oil or grease for the rubber.

2002 toyota tacoma pre-runner
changed master cylinder, rear wheel brake cylinders, load sensing proportioning valve (lspv, bled brakes 4x. very low psi to rear brakes. test indicates 95% braking to front. the only thing i can think of is the rear brake hose. haven't gotten around to replace it yet because there's good flow when bleeding. any response is appreciated.

Just as a note, you should watch what type of lube you use on caliper slides. I've had permatex (cant tell what flavor youre using) cause the rubber to swell which pretty much locks up the caliper. I only use sil glyde now which seems to work great.

Love your videos, Eric. Referencing this video to do my 2017 Grand Cherokee tomorrow morning. Not only did I have to order an 11mm hex socket, but the caliper bracket is a Torx E20. Had to order that one too!
Keep up the good work my man!

Why don't you open the bleeder screws before pressing the piston back into the caliper? Two of my mechanic friends say you should always open the bleeders before compressing the piston else you will destroy the ABS system.

4: 10 I used to work for a company called Discount Tire. I mean Disgruntled Tire. Seriously someone came in for a air pressure check and I ended up changing putting brakes on the front. I know your pain

You took me back to the '70s, had an OSSA 250cc Stiletto motorcycle it had a couple of 11mm bolts hat held the engine in the frame, NEVER have used the 11mm sockets I bought for that bike since then!
