I got my F150 brand new and in 7 years put 130k miles. I think my brakes need to be replaced. Should I change my Calipers too? Thanks in advance.

 

No reason to change the calipers unless you are having issues with them. Torn boots, sticking piston, etc.

 

80K on my 2017, I am replacing the pads, no reason to change the rotors or calipers in my mind.

 

I have only performed synthetic oil changes.. never worked on brakes.. so I can't tell if calipers are good or no.. I told someone I drove 130k miles and didn't change pads or rotors and that person didnt believe me..said I must have done too much damage including calipers.

 

I'm hoping my rotors are ok...but I think they're done. 130k miles mostly hwy driven.

 

Any pulsating when stopping? Grinding noises?

 

Neither rotors are calipers need to replaced unless they are damaged.
Calipers don't generally fail, unless they are old and rusted out internally or have bad piston seals.
In a normal situation, no need to repair.

Rotors can be resurfaced if they are pulsing. It's not a bad idea to do it sometimes just to remove glazing. Otherwise, they probably aren't worn.
We can't tell you that though. A shop will 'measure' the rotor thickness with a brake tool. For any us to say "yes you should replace them" would be us spending your money.

Sounds like you should pick up a repair manual like Hayes or Chilton. And watch some good YouTube videos of how to install disk brakes. If the demonstrator seems like an idiot, keep trying. Don't take lousy advice from somebody replacing brakes one handed while they filmy with a shaky and with their old phone.

 

I wouldn't take mechanical advice from that person. If calipers look OK and are working OK, they are OK. Rotors don't need to be replaced if they are in good shape and can be resurfaced. Have a shop do your brake job if you aren't sure what you're doing.

 

I hope you have changed the brake fluid.

 

Not to be a dyck but...you shouldn't be attempting to work on the brakes given the lack of knowledge you have admitted to. There is no reason to change rotors unless they are worn past the minimum thickness, or scored/grooved. The calipers ONLY need changed if the pistons are sticking or have exterior damage, or have quit 'floating'. IT almost seems as if you are calling the 'rotors' (the part the pads press against), "calipers".
There have been dozens of threads over the years from well-meaning owners that got in over their heads with a project or repair. Changing brake pads, whilst not a difficult task, DOES require some skill/experience.
For reference, I had over 137,000 miles on my 2010 when I sold it, The brake pads were not even 50% worn, and this on a vehicle that was used mainly for towing boats that weighed between 5K and 7K pounds around. As others have said, read some books, watch some videos, educate yourself on how the system works and what constitutes repair/replacement of items...THEN tackle this project IF needed. And never listen to 'friends' that have ZERO knowledge or understanding of mechanical systems on cars.
