DIY: Ford Ranger 2wd Front Brake Pad and Rotor Replacement

Video tutorial on how to replace the front brakes on a Ford Ranger 2wd with no ABS. This video does not include the full details on how to replace the wheel bearing. Your vehicle may or may not require the rotors to be replaced. Instead of buying new rotors, you can also have them resurfaced which will remove any warpage or surface damage. Resurfacing rotors are normally cheaper than buying new rotors, but they are not as durable as they are a thinner material and will be affected by heat quicker. This particular tutorial was done on a 1998 Ford Ranger regular cab short box 2wd.
