This is a genuine Nissan handbrake shoe set specifically for the Nissan Pathfinder R51. Located inside the rear brake rotors, these shoes are the core component of your vehicle's parking brake system. This product is supplied as a complete set containing all the shoes required to service both the left-hand (passenger side) and right-hand (driver side) rear wheels.
The friction material on your handbrake shoes wears down over time, and can also be compromised by grease or oil contamination, severely reducing its holding power. A weak handbrake that no longer holds the vehicle securely on an incline is a serious safety risk and a guaranteed roadworthy failure. Installing this genuine Nissan set restores your handbrake's performance to factory standards, ensuring perfect fitment and reliable operation. Cheaper aftermarket shoes often use inferior friction materials, leading to poor holding power and premature wear-a risk not worth taking with your vehicle's safety.
Replacing handbrake shoes is a workshop job of moderate difficulty. Access requires removing the rear wheels, brake calipers, and brake rotors. Correct adjustment of the shoes after installation is critical for safe and effective operation. We recommend inspecting the rear brake rotors and all handbrake hardware, including springs and adjusters, for wear at the same time. You will typically need a wheel brace, jack and axle stands, a socket set, brake spring pliers, and brake cleaner to complete the job.
Please check vehicle fitment to confirm compatibility with your vehicle. Please contact us with your VIN details if you require further assistance to confirm fitment.
