Removal
Attention:
Clean the caliper and brake pads only with a vacuum cleaner. Do not blow with compressed air.
There is no need to remove the brake hose mounting bolt unless you are disassembling and replacing the caliper assembly or caliper bracket. Also, hang the cylinder body on a wire so as not to stretch the brake hose.
When replacing brake pads, always replace the linings and lining caps as a set.
1. Remove one bolt from the lower guide pin.
2. Hang the cylinder body on the wire and remove the shoes, shoe holders and gaskets.
Attention:
When the cylinder body is open, do not press the brake pedal, otherwise the pistons will pop out.
If there are traces of rust on the gaskets, replace them with new ones.
Do not damage the piston dust boots and do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the disc.
Installation
1. Apply Nissan brake lubricant (KRF1600005) onto the inner pad and cover of the inner shoe and the outer pad of the outer shoe and install them in place.
2. Apply Nissan brake lubricant (KRF1600005) onto the contact surface of the pad holder. Install the pad holders and pads onto the caliper bracket.
3. Install the cylinder body onto the caliper bracket, insert the guide pins and tighten to the required torque.

Caution: When replacing the pads with new ones, monitor the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir, since the piston moves back, causing the fluid to return to the reservoir.
4. Check if the brakes are sticking.
