Hi, my name is Nate McCullough, on behalf of Expert Village. In these clips we're going
to talk about the proper way to remove and replace a front wheel drive vehicles ball
joint. In this clip we're going to talk about the proper way to clean your vehicles rotor
surface and reinstall your brake pad. We have new ones for this vehicle, thus being that
while we were in servicing the ball joint we had the brake pads off and they were excessively
worn. First thing to go on is going to be your hardware clips. They clip on just like
so. You have an upper and a lower one. You may have to use the pad to hold your clip
on. There we go. This is your ware indicator. It is going to go on your inboard trailing
edge, when you're going forward, it's going to go just like so. The trailing edge is going
to be, as the wheel turns it's going to be the bottom side. This would be the lead edge,
this would be the trailing edge. Let me get my clip back on there. Okay, at this point
in time it's okay if your rotor has been contaminated with grease or any kind of spray solvents
you've been using to take and use your brake clean and spray it off and clean the surface
off. We didn't get ours dirty so I'm not going to do that. Take and install our outboard
pad, right there. We have some return springs we're going to also put on. That's these guys
here.
Right there and right there. That's the proper way to reinstall your brake pads.
