This genuine Nissan drum brake adjuster is located within the rear brake drum assembly of your vehicle. This component is essential for maintaining the correct clearance between the brake shoes and the inner surface of the brake drum. As your brake shoes wear down, this adjuster automatically expands to fill the gap, ensuring your brake pedal feel remains consistent and your brakes engage effectively. This part may need replacement if it becomes seized due to corrosion and brake dust, or if the adjustment teeth become worn, preventing it from functioning correctly.
Failure to replace a faulty or seized drum brake adjuster can lead to a significant increase in brake pedal travel, creating a "long" or "spongy" pedal feel. This can result in reduced braking performance and increased stopping distances. In more severe cases, it can cause uneven braking between the rear wheels, making the vehicle pull to one side, or lead to a complete failure of the handbrake on the affected side, posing a serious safety risk.
There are 2 required per vehicle, one per Rear Brake Drum.
