Fixing Squeeky brakes

What happens here

Before starting any work on the brakes, ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat, stable surface. For safety, first, jack up the truck until the tire is approximately one inch off the ground. Then, place jack stands securely under the vehicle's frame to support its weight, allowing the jack to be removed or used for fine adjustments without relying solely on it.

Goal: Begin by safely jacking up the vehicle so that the wheel is about an inch off the ground, and secure it with jack stands for stability.

What they say

So, your dad never taught you how to change your own brake pads. Don't worry, I got you. First, grab yourself some WD40. Just kidding. Don't do that. Let me show you how to change your own brakes. First things first, jack up your truck so the tire is about an inch off the ground. Next, remove your wheel. To make my life easier, I'm using a battery powered/edin impact with an adapter for my locking lugs.
