I changed front Pads and brake lines I' bleed them lots of peddle but the front driver is staying on, what did I do wrong. I haven't taken it back off yet it's still hot. What should I be looking for?
I put some never sizze on the back of the pads, the lines seem fine I was able to get fluid out each bleeder valve89CherokeePioneer said:You lube up the sliders? Hurt the brake line in anyway? Like, crimping it closed or something. Nah, actually, you'd almost have to be doing that on purpose but..
not sure I understand. Your saying in this case I should pull out the bolts, do you think I've tightened those bolts to much or that there is some debrie on them. Also another thing is The peddle is real hard the second I step on it the peddle is there no give89CherokeePioneer said:Okay, well good on the back of the pads. One thing-I've seen the flexible hose fail in such a way that it effectively creates a one-way valve. But start simple.
The caliper bolts (and the sliders, these metal sheathings almost which reside in the caliper holes) should be removed, if nessecary lightly sanded so they are smoothed and liberally coated with whatever silicone greese you choose-I use anti-sieze. This allows the caliper to slide away from the rotor.
Simply unbolting and rebolting the caliper back together is bad practice.
