This video shows you how to install new rear brake pads and rotors from TRQ on your 1998-2005 Lexus GS300. Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes.

This repair was done on a 2001 Lexus GS300 Base 3.0L Sedan 4-Door RWD Automatic and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:
1998 Lexus GS300
1999 Lexus GS300
