This is a Genuine Nissan front brake caliper shim kit designed for specific Nissan Navara D40 and Pathfinder R51 models. This complete hardware kit is installed on the front brake calipers, fitting between the brake pads and the caliper housing. The shims are engineered to absorb high-frequency vibrations, which is critical for preventing brake squeal and ensuring your brake pads wear evenly across their service life.
Often, the original shims are corroded, damaged, or mistakenly discarded during a brake pad change. Without these crucial components, you'll likely experience a persistent, high-pitched squeal when applying the brakes, a common sign of improper pad seating and unwanted vibration. This kit contains all the required anti-squeal shims and pad retainer plates for a complete service of both front calipers.
Product Features
Installation is a straightforward task for an experienced DIY mechanic or any workshop and is typically performed when replacing the front brake pads. This kit is installed as part of a brake service, so new front brake pads are almost always required. Depending on their condition, you may also need new brake rotors and fresh brake fluid. Tools required typically include a socket set, torque wrench, and a brake caliper piston tool.
