1995-2003 Nissan Maxima: Rear brake pad/rotor replacement (outdated)



This video is old and outdated, see the new video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD6YOUAlnjY

How to change out the rear pads and rotors on a 4th/5th/5.5 gen Maxima. IIRC starting with the 6th gen the parking brake is a drum-in-hat design, so the rear calipers compress just like the fronts.

Do as I say, not as I do. Yep, now I’ve got to get some money together and find me a torque member at the local pullapart, assuming they aren’t all seized to hell like mine.

Video is obviously lacking a lot of random information (as well as poorly edited). When I’m able to get the ‘new’ torque member, I’ll probably make a better vid.

Other things that need to be discussed are the proper way to rotate the pistons back in, lining them up with the tab on the pads, etc.

Yes, I know the rotor isn’t spinning true; backside is all rusty, and the lugnuts were just finger tight.
