How to Change Rear Brake Pads

Learn how to replace your rear brakes. This video will show you how to replace brake pads on rear disc brakes. It takes 30 min to do both disc brakes and is really easy. Brake pads cost $30 and all you need are some wrenches, c-clamps, and a jack to lift the car. ANYONE CAN DO THIS!!!
This procedure will be similar on most dodge and Chrysler cars such as the dodge neon, dodge caliber, Chrysler intrepid, etc.

The old vids are still useful to this day keep killing it Chris !

Dear Chris, shop quoted me $600 for fronts and rears all around, even thought I don't NEED rotors, they say it voids the pad warranty....apparently, they are nuts, or they think I am. Anyway, this video guided me thru the process, and rear pads are on....the fronts are still thick, and I owe you big time !! THANKS !!

I am literally going from your oldest videos through all of it. I enjoy your videos and look forward to learning all sorts of stuff!

I have learned a lot from ChrisFix videos so far. I searched videos replacing brake pads and I had no idea about his old videos until now. Recent his videos looks nice, fancy, maintain focus and voice stably, and equip nice tools but I really like this video even he couldn't take apart the pad at once and even didn't wear gloves. Maybe that's exactly how I look like and, mayby, many people who need help from his video look like. Of course I love his recent videos as well but this old video makes me feel better. Thanks Chris!

The key for me, being a novice was to get the simple $5 (priceless to me) brake tool. I did not have this for the first side I tried. Do yourself a favor and get this. Also remember to grease the back side of the where the clip that goes into the piston is. This will make this project much easier. This is the best video out there. Best mechanic and lighting. Watch first install after. I really appreciate the people who made this.

before HEY GUYS CHRIS FIX HERE was a thing

[blakehorne]

Thanks to this guy's videos I learned how to replace my brakes on my own car! Going to save me a ton of money in the long run, plus learned how to do my own oil changes. It's actually pretty easy if you're willing to put in the effort.

Awe, you are so consistent with your methods of teaching and with being sure that you pay attention to detail in doing so! I hope you help many individuals and continue to do the good work that you do. Love what you do. <3

[chrisfix]

That is awesome! I wish they had more diesel options here in the USA. Glad the video is helpful!!!

[VeganBotany]

Omg you're such a good boy at teaching. I hope you have many kids and only let them watch educational videos (like yours) without profanity, so they can be enlightened and educate their youngsters in the future.

2019 chrisfix would've had this done in 3 minutes with some ENERGY.

[chrisfix]

Great! Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

[BFCEightyNine]

came back to watch an old video and see where you started, you've came a long way mate!

[chrisfix]

Actually I do brakes all the time... I like how I call it a fuel line by mistake (I think I even correct myself) and you think this is my first time... How did I use the piston compressor wrong?

[butterchicken]

Thanks man this video is so helpful and quite uncle taught me how to replace front brake pads but it’s best to watch your videos just to be safe😎

[jamessparks]

I'm changing the back brakes on my 2016 Kia Soul tomorrow and couldn't be happier I found this video. I thought I had everything I need, but it looks like I'll have to run out and pick up some grease.

[GunnyHemiPlymouth]

Wow, it doesn't feel like a Chris fix video if you don't say HAAAYYY GUUUYS! Or soupy wordor lol. Thanks for the help

[ivan.urrutia]

I wish I had seen this back in 2012... Thanks Chris!

[calebcohen]

Many thanks. I can't count how many times I've changed brake pads on various cars, including the fronts on this one. Got stuck twice, watched your video both times and confirmed I was doing the 'right thing' and just kept at it and all eventually worked fine. 60 mins for lefts, 20 mins for rights ;-)

[chrisfix]

With this car (pt cruiser) you have to compress the piston a little in order to slide the calipers off... I originally tried to just slide the calipers off like I do on all of my other cars but for some reason the PT Cruiser has to have the piston compressed... No matter what you will have to compress the piston when you put the new pads on though... Give it a shot without initially compressing it and if it doesnt come off, compress it... Let me know what happens!
