Removal and Installation of Brake Pads: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Nissan NV3500 HD, 2019 Nissan NV2500 HD, and 2019 Nissan NV1500. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazards of air borne particles or other material.
CAUTION:
  • Do not depress the brake pedal while removing the brake pads because the piston may pop out.
  • If brake fluid or grease contacts the brake caliper assembly and disc rotor, quickly wipe it off.
  1. Install the pad retainers if the pad retainers have been removed.
    CAUTION:
    • Securely assemble the pad retainers (1) so that it will not be lifted up from the torque member (2).
