Thumbs way up. Thank you very much. You ask for suggestions for new videos. So. Can you, Chris, do a brake, caliper and rotor replacement and full bleeder valve and master cylinder bleed, refresh, etc. on a 93-98 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It would be helpful to see a full refresh as this 1st generation Jeep Grand Cherokee, is still one of the most popular, still driven vehicles, driving, on the road today. Thank you Chris for all you do and all you share.

I noticed your brake fluid was very clean when bleeding the caliper. Would you suggest flushing the brakes first, then the caliper replacement, then would you need to bleed all 4 break lines again after you replace the caliper? Or are you safe to just bleed the replaced caliper line?
Thanks a ton for the videos!

Do new brake calipers come with pre-lubricated pins? I recently replaced both of mine (Centric brand) and the pins had some white grease substance. I left it on and added some of my lubricant (Permatex Silicone Ceramic. Now Im a little concerned as to what that white grease substance was and of mixing them together.

I appreciate you. This video made it super easy for me, and I have never changed a caliper before. Watching this, I got the job done in about 30 minutes save me a lot more money, then taking it to the shop.

Hi Chris, I should do this to my front brakes. Would you suggest anti seize on the bleeder valve screw while everything is still dry, or is anti seize a bad idea? Merry Christmas!

On which side should the wear indicators go? I have seen videos were one will put the pad with the wear indicator on the outside and I have seen some put on the inside, thanks

Beautiful video my man! Easy to follow, very informative, and a pleasure to watch. You've inspired me and given me the much needed confidence to do my own brake job. Thank you!
