Brought to you by 1AAuto.com. Your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the internet. Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how to video help you out. The next time you need a part for your vehicle think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks. In this video we show you how to replace the rear brakes on this 2003 Nissan Altima, pretty much the same for any 2002 to 2006. We show you the right hand, the left hand is the same procedure. We do always recommend you replace your brakes in pairs.
The items you'll need for this repair are new brakes pads and rotor kit from 1A Auto.com; 8, 12, 14, 19 and 21 mm sockets with a ratchet. A piece of pipe for some extra leverage. Brake cleaner, brake grease, brake fluid, jack and jack stands and a torque wrench. Raise and remove your wheel and tire. If you don't have the benefit of air tools, loosen the lug nuts with the vehicle on the ground, then raise and support it and remove the lug nuts the rest of the way. Inspect your brakes. You can look through and see the brake pads, and there's not much left to the brake pads on this vehicle and the rotor is in rough shape, pretty corroded with some large gouges. To just replace the pads you can see we took that top bolt out, but we're going to take the whole rotor off because it's actually frozen on this car.
Its two 19 mm bolts and you can see we use a 19 mm socket with a ratchet and a pipe for some extra leverage. You'll need to do this if you want to replace the rotor anyways, because you need to take the whole caliper bracket off in order to get the rotor off. Once the bolts are removed, using a flat blade screwdriver pry that off. Then you can set that aside. Your old rotor pulls right off. You want to use a flat blade screwdriver and pop this plug out of the rotor. Spray down your emergency brake assembly with some brake cleaner. Now using brake cleaner wipe down your new rotor. Then you put some brake grease on either end of your brake pads. You can see here's your adjuster for your other brake and that hole in the rotor is so you can reach the adjuster with a screwdriver. Turn it until you feel the parking brake drag on the inside a little bit; once adjusted then you can replace the plug. As we said before, our caliper was in bad shape. We ended up having to replace it, but you can ad lib along with us. You can put your caliper back in place.
Take the pads out of your caliper, and then put the caliper back in place. Put the two 19 mm bolts in place and then tighten them up to 85 - 90 foot pounds. Now you want to remove this 14 mm bolt right here. Once the bolt's removed pull your caliper back and then push, your brake pad slides into place. Once the sides are in place you can put your brake pads back in and push your caliper back into place and replace that 14mm bolt. Fast forward as we tighten that bolt back up to 25 foot pounds. - to your brake lines. Now we're going to fast forward here as Don replaces the wheel. You want to put the lug nuts on preliminarily. Lower the vehicle and tighten them the rest of the way. Now torque the lug nuts to a 100 foot pounds in a crossing pattern. After doing any repair on the brakes, before taking it out onto the road it's important to do a couple of things first. First you want to pump the brakes until the brake pedal firms up. Then you want to do a stop test from five miles per hour and then 10 miles per hour.

In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the front brakes on this 2003 Nissan Altima, it's the same process on the Altima's from 2002 to 2006. We show on the passenger side but it's the same process on the driver's side. The items you'll need for this is new brake pad and router kit from 1AAuto.com, flat blade screwdriver, 14 mm, 21 mm and 22 mm sockets and ratchet, a wire brush, a large C clamp, brake cleaner, brake grease and jack and jack stands. Start off by removing your wheel, if you don't have air power tools you are going to want loosen the lug nuts while the vehicle is on the ground and then jack it up and remove them the rest of the way. Now to inspect your brakes, you just want to look in here and you can see how much life is left on your brake pads. Ours is in pretty rough shape. Then the next thing you want to do is just check your router for any deep gouges.
You want to pry in here with a screwdriver to push the caliper piston into place, this will make it easier to remove the caliper and then you want to remove this two 14mm bolts. Then you can pull that caliper off and you want to set aside and secure it with a wire tie or something up and out of the way and then pry off the brake pads. Pry off your brake pad slides. Next you want to remove these two 22 mm bolts, you can see Don uses a piece a pipe to give him some extra leverage to help break those bolts free. Once those bolts are removed, your caliper bracket will come right off and then using a hammer you want to hit the back of your router to break it free and pull that off as well. On the right is the old router and brake pads, on the left is the new ones from 1A Auto. Using some brake cleaner, clean up your new router. Use a wire brush to just clean up your caliper bracket a little bit. Also clean up your brake pad slides. Take some brake grease and just apply it to the ends of the brake pad on these tabs. Then take your caliper bracket and make sure that these slide bolts have grease on them. If they don't, apply some. Both of ours are all set.
Now put your new router into place and put on one lug nut just to hold into place. Then take your caliper bracket and put that into place and replace those two 22 mm bolts. Then just torque these bolts to 100 foot pounds. Push your brake pad slides back into place. Push your brake pads into place and if you need to you can use a hammer, just carefully tap into place. Then bring your caliper down and using a large C clamp, you just want to twist that piston in until it's flat. In the end it should look like this. Now you can put the caliper into place and you want to put it over those slide bolts and then replace those two 14 mm bolts and torque them to about 25 foot pounds. Replace your wheel, hub caps and lug nuts. Tighten the lug nuts preliminarily, lower the vehicle and tighten them the rest of the way. Then you want to torque the lug nuts in a crossing pattern to 100 foot pounds. After doing any repair on the brakes, before taking it out onto the road it's important to do a couple of things first. First you want to just pump the brakes until the brake firms up and then you want to do a stop test from 5 miles per hour and then 10 miles per hour.
