Make sure there is no wear, damage, or cracks in sliding sleeve and sliding sleeve boots, and if there are,
replace them.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Do not use NISSAN Rubber Grease (KRE00 00010, KRE00 00010 01) when assembling.
1. Apply clean brake fluid to new piston seal and insert in to
groove on cylinder body. Refer to MA-10
.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston seal.
2. Apply brake fluid to piston and to piston boot, then install piston
boot in to piston groove. Refer to MA-10
.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston boot.
3. Insert into cylinder body by hand and insert piston boot piston-side lip into piston groove.
CAUTION:
Press piston evenly and vary the pressing point to prevent cylinder body inner wall from being
rubbed.
4. Install sliding boots and sleeves to cylinder body.
DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks, and serious damage. If any non-standard condition is
detected, replace applicable part.
Runout Inspection
1. Using wheel nuts, install disc rotor to wheel hub. (2 or more positions.)
2. Inspect runout using a dial gauge. [Measured at 10 mm (0.39 in)
inside disk edge.]
NOTE:
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the specifi-
cation before measuring runout. Refer to RAX-5, "
On-Vehicle
Inspection and Service" .
3. If runout is outside the limit, find the minimum runout point by
shifting mounting positions of disc rotor and wheel hub by one
hole.
4. If runout still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car brake lathe.

Inspect the components for any looseness or back lash. Inspect each component for any excessive wear or
damage. Replace any components as necessary.
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION
• Move the wheel hub and bearing assembly in the axial direction by hand to check the axial end play. Check
that the axial end play is with specification. Replace the wheel hub and bearing assembly as necessary.
