How to fix Brakes?

My brother bought new brake pads online and received them today. I asked him why hes not varying them and he said he doesn't have the tools to do it. I'm positive we do but I could be wrong. So anyone know what he is talking something like. Another thing, how does one change a cars brakes, i reason their disk brakes.

Its genuine easy to change brake pad in a car, but it does remarkably from car to car, you can pick up a book at any auto parts store i.e. a repair manual for a specific car. You can even obtain an online service for about 20 bucks a year via alldata that is searchable and have pictures.

This will also tell you exactly what you need to do the undertaking.

If its an older car you can run into problems near calipers seizing or problems bleeding brakes, most repair shops can do this for you in smaller number than an hour and on average that is 65 bucks where I live.
on disc brakes you
- heave the vehicle and secure it on jack stands
- remove the wheel
- remove the caliper (usually a 3/8 or 1/4 inch hex adapter)
- remove ancient pads
- use a c-clamp to compress piston
- apply an anit squeal lubricant to the back of hot pads
-reinstall in different order

it is not necessary to bleed the brakes as long as you do not remove the hose from the caliper or sympathetic the bleeder valve

Car troubles?



Answers:    I recommend taking the car to a professional and have them do the work. Brakes are not something to clutch a chance on. Think of all the populace who ride in the car and the others who encounter it doing a tour. Neither of you sound like you know how to properly do the work. To adjectives those who are suggesting they do it themselves..You aren't the one riding in the car wondering if the work be done right. Brakes can be easy...IF you know what you are doing. If not.leave them to the Pro's.
