Maybe if you used more than one word in your subjects, people might look in your thread.

Or is it too much of a strain on your brain to use a complete sentence when forming your threads?

 

did you take the bolts that are holding in on off? and if its your rear caliper, did you take the parking brake off?

 

www.motorvate.ca has good istructions.

There is two parts to it. the caliper and the torque member. the caliper comes off first. Two bolts hold it to the torque member. It might take a bit of pull to get it off but it should slide right off. Then two more bolts to release the torque member.

 

Is it me, or does everyone have broken studs all of a sudden? I've noticed that things tend to break simultaneously on large groups of Maximas.

 

i broke my wheel stud couple months ago cuz i used wrong size lugs for my voxx mgrs. also broke the 14mm bolt off the caliper...

after that i learned a great lesson. now i am able to take off calipers and rotors like a pro

 

I guess maximas are just sympathetic with each other...they feel each other's pain. ha ha.

I had a stud breat this week. I am going to be fixing it tomorrow. Luckily, I have a little time to get some parts myself, instead of having to go through the stealership. I have another can I can drive and park the max.
