Ferrari 348 Brake Pad Video

Nothing really new... several excellent threads have documented the process, but since I decided to get rid of the crappy pads on my car, I figured I would video the process for those who prefer that format. Just search "Ferrari 348 Brake Pad Change" on Youtube, or try these links (if they work):

Thanks for this.
I have a new pair of rotors sitting on the shelf and I was going to change out the pads.

Now to figure out what I want to put up front. good stopping power, but low dust is what I'm after. I never track the car but do aggressively drive her sometimes. Off to the forum for the 1000 opinions on pads.

 

great video Paul could you pm me please

 

Nice post, thanks for sharing.

 

Hi Paul

Thanks for posting another great video (love your engine service ones on youtube)!

Just as a suggestion if I may - I used to spread my pads in a similar manner as per your video and invariably kept scratching the calipers until I came across a brake pad spreader tool - its a lot easier eliminates the risk of damaging your calipers completely

That's a cool bit of kit... better than my crude tools. I'll have to get one of those. I usually use a C clamp and a couple of appropriately sized sockets on my normal 1 piston-per-caliper cars, but that wasn't gonna work on 4 little pistons. Thanks for the recomendation!

 

Another Harbor Freight trip in the offing!

 

I bought on eBay today... thanks!

Thanks for the great vid, Paul. You're GCK install vids were life savers, by the way.

Can I assume the brake pad swap procedure would be fairly identical on a 355? If so, this should be featured in the 355 DIY sticky as well.
