REAR DISC BRAKE
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
WAR NING :
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of air borne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
While removing cylinder body, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.
It is not necessary to remove bolts on torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or
replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.
Do not damage piston boot.
If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.
Always replace shim and shim covers as a set when replacing brake pads.
Keep rotor free from brake fluid.
Burnish the brake pads and disc rotor mutually contacting surfaces after refinishing or replacing
rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-34, "
BRAKE
BURNISHING PROCEDURE" .
Removal and Installation of Brake PadNFS000PI
REMOVAL
1. Remove tires from vehicle with power tool.
2. Remove lower sliding pin bolt.
3. Hang cylinder body with a wire, and remove pads, pad retainers, shims, and shim cover from torque mem-
ber.
CAUTION:
Deform pad retainer when removing pad retainer from torque member.
INSTALLATION
1. Apply PBC (Poly Butyl Cuprysil) grease or equivalent to between shim cover and shim. Install inner shim,
inner shim cover to inner pad, and outer shim, outer shim cover to outer pad.
2. Install pad retainers and pads to torque member.
3. Press in piston until pads can be installed, and then install cylin-
der body to torque member.
CAUTION:
In the case of replacing a pad with new one, check a brake
fluid level in the reservoir tank because brake fluid returns
to master cylinder reservoir tank when pressing piston in.
NOTE:
Use a disc brake piston tool (commercial service tool) to easily
press piston.
4. Install upper sliding pin bolt and tighten to the specified torque.
Refer to BR-29, "
Components" .
5. Check rear disc brake for drag.
6. Install tires to vehicle.
3: Apply polyglycol ether based lubricant.
: Apply brake fluid.

CAUTION:
Before installing caliper assembly, wipe off oil and moisture on all mounting surfaces of rear axle
and caliper assembly and threads, bolts and washers.
3. Install L-shaped pin of brake hose and then tighten union bolt to
the specified torque. Refer to BR-13, "
Removal and Installation
of Rear Brake Tube and Brake Hose" .
4. Refill with new brake fluid and bleed air. Refer to BR-11, "
Bleed-
ing Brake System" .
5. Check rear disc brake for drag.
6. Install tires to vehicle.

Disassembly and Assembly of Brake Caliper AssemblyNFS000PK
NOTE:
Do not remove torque member, pads, shims, shim covers, and pad retainers when disassembling and assem-
bling cylinder body assembly.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove sliding pin bolt, and then remove cylinder body from torque member.
CAUTION:
Do not drop pads, shims, shim cover and pad retainers from torque member.
2. Remove sliding pin boot from torque member.
3. Remove retaining ring from cylinder body using a flat-bladed
screwdriver as shown in the figure.
4. Place a wooden block as shown in the figure, and blow air from
union bolt mounting hole to remove piston and piston boot.
CAUTION:
Do not get fingers caught in the piston.
5. Remove piston seal from cylinder body using a flat-bladed
screwdriver.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage a cylinder inner wall.
INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Cylinder Body
Check the inner wall of cylinder for corrosion, wear, and damage. If a malfunction is detected, replace cylinder
body.
CAUTION:
Clean cylinder body using new brake fluid. Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene.
Torque Member
Check torque member for wear, cracks, and damage. Replace if there are.
Piston
Check the piston surface for corrosion, wear, and damage. If a malfunction is detected, replace applicable
part.

CAUTION:
A piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with sandpaper.
Sliding Pin Bolt, Sliding Pin Boot
Check sliding pin bolt and sliding pin boot for wear, damage, and cracks. Replace if there are.
ASSEMBLY
1. Apply polyglycol ether based lubricant to piston seal, and install
them to cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston seal.
2. Apply rubber grease to piston boot. Cover the piston end with
the piston boot, and then install cylinder side lip on the piston
boot securely into the groove on cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston boot.
3. Apply brake fluid to piston. Push piston into cylinder body by
hand and push piston boot piston side lip into the piston groove.
CAUTION:
Press the piston evenly and vary the pressing point to pre-
vent cylinder inner wall from being rubbed.
4. Secure piston boot with retaining ring.
CAUTION:
Make sure that boot is securely engaged in the groove on
cylinder body.
Do not reuse retainer ring.
5. Install sliding pin boot to torque member.
6. Install the cylinder body to torque member, and then tighten slid-
ing pin bolt to the specified torque. Refer to BR-29, "

DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks, and serious damage. Replace if there are.
Runout Inspection
1. Fix disc rotor to wheel hub using wheel nuts (2 or more posi-
tions).
2. Inspect runout using dial gauge. [Measured at 10 mm (0.39 in)
inside disc edge.]
NOTE:
Before measuring, make sure that wheel bearing axial end play
is within the specification. Refer to RAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING
INSPECTION" .
3. When runout exceeds limit value, displace mounting positions of
disc rotor by one hole. And then find a position of the minimum value for runout.
4. Replace disc rotor if it is outside repair limit after performing the above operation.
Thickness Inspection
Check the thickness of the disc rotor using a micrometer. Replace
disc rotor if the thickness is under the wear limit.
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE
Burnish contact surfaces between disc rotors and pads according to following procedure after refinishing or
replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
CAUTION:
Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake does not operate easily until pad and disc rotor are
securely fitted.
Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive the vehicle on a straight, flat road.
2. Depress brake pedal with the power to stop vehicle within 3 to 5 seconds until the vehicle stops.
3. Drive without depressing brake for a few minutes to cool the brake.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 until pad and disc rotor are securely fitted. Runout limit : 0.055 mm (0.0022 in)
(With it attached to the vehicle)

Standard thickness : 16.0 mm (0.631 in)
Wear limit : 14.0 mm (0.551 in)
Thickness variation
