Shame the customer didn't want the fluids changed. Great Stuff!
Dreadlock? Or locktide?
No brake cleaner on the new rotors? Off camera?
I know it is hot in Florida but the only issue I have with Ray is doing that kind of work in shorts.
I'm 82 and may never be able to work on vehicles again. I started helping my Dad when I was 10, so I have a little experience. I like the way Ray works. I am blown away by the tools available now. We made and modified a lot of tools. I am smart enough to know that the video is edited. I also know that Ray does not show everything on camera.
I really don't understand haters. That makes for a miserable life. I know, I had two family members that were consumed by their hatred.
Thanks, Ray.
I never thought that I would enjoy watching a guy working on car's – but Ray, I enjoy watching you. Thank you for making my Youtube app worth the install.
2 Grunts = 1 Click ?
Milimeters, what is this communist voodoo you speak ?
A "Fluid exchange" ?? I just did that with a bar-fly I just met…. Hahaha…
FFS loosen the shoes off or you not capable
You are assuming that it is brake fluid, I have known several people that used power steering fluid in the brakes.
Well, now I know what a torque stick is…
No way would i want to drive away on 3mm brake pads when they were just off the car easily swapped
The first time I took my brake caliper carriers off it was that stuck that I snapped a spanner
Not gonna comment on the angry guy, just want to ask how many ugga duggas in one Grunt?
Just as a note they are speed nuts and can be purchased at any hardware store
Ray, I noticed you didn't do the brake bleeding at each wheel. Is there another way of bleeding the brakes? Just curious. Great video!
Uh oh i didn'tsee you use a can of brake clean on each rotor 😆
Next time you have to do a brake job like that take a hammer and hit the end of the wrench
"CLICK" "GRAVITY" Should be on his coffee mugs.
Fix it all! (Forgets about labor)
Seeing you fighting to break the caliper bolts free, I have a suggestion. Instead of trying to pull down to break the bolt free, laying down and pushing up would have given you more power with the hand tool.
Pulling down, you're limited to your weight. Pushing up, you're limited by the lesser of your strength or the vehicle's weight.
Trans fluid is better then using power steering fluid
Prybar action for heavy duty tires is necessary as our tires and rims are over 200 lbs each
Your personality is what makes your videos interesting. Keep talking to the car and your tools and Keep throwing in your mechanic wisdom, they're valuable. Stay positive and away from your potical views. Thanks for everything.
Dude, you didn't grease the shims where the pads contact them!!! You absolutely must have some form of lubrication there.
All the way from South Africa. I really enjoy your videos. I would love to work in a shop like that. Im a service foreman for a company who builds lnterlink trailers. Big tools and big hammers. I see you use 17 19 24 sockets. We here use 95mm sockets in some cases
Noticed you didn't grease the back of the pads. Always been a peeve of mine. I know they have anti BS backing but eventually they will start to squeal. I always lube mine and get full life and they never squeal.
What’s the purple liquid treatment added to the brake bracket bolts?
I put a block under my pry bar, then I simply step on the bar to elevate the tire and have both hands free to twist lugs or rotate tire into the right spot.
many years ago in an emergency i had to use cooking oil for break fluid. it worked till i got to where i was going and got it fixed properly.
Surprised you put the new pads on dry Ray I was always taught to put copper slip on the backs and in the runners so they don't squeal. Great vid buddy
You forgot to grease the break pads 😂 that keeps them from sticking and making noise😡 that's old school teaching😱
Power steering and brake fluids that look like tar "damage my soul". It's unthinkable to me that the owner would decline flushing those systems. Makes me wonder what trade that van is used in.
Bahahaha kinda like society
the ends of the lug studs be looking sketchy 🤣🤣
What is done here is reallity and done well. Save the critical stuff. If you have ever worked in the field, you know.
If not, don't start, you will never make money with book time following exactly what you comment about. There is a difference between being a hack and being good at what you do.
I like the little toy you use to press the pistons back into the brake caliper, probably better than using a c-clamp and the worn-out brake pad itself… (been there, done it – gently of course, so as not to damage the caliper)
Cant believe you suckered that guy into new rotors when they were still perfectly fine. You are a shame to the name.
Why do you not drain Brake fluid out of caliper when replacing the brakes?
The fact that it had the original rotors, unturned, and they still looked pretty good speaks to the maintenance upkeep on at least the brakes it seems to me.
I never saw such nice used brakes, but I live in Central New Salt (York)
Shouldn't he have used loctite on those bracket bolts? Did the factory use it?
