This Genuine Nissan Front Brake Caliper Shim Kit is designed for the Nissan Navara D23. The kit consists of precisely engineered metal plates that fit between the front brake pads and the caliper assembly. Their primary function is to eliminate noise and ensure the smooth, quiet operation of your front brakes.
Over time, original shims can corrode, bend, or lose their noise-dampening properties, leading to irritating brake squeal, grinding, or chattering, especially during light braking. It is best practice to replace these shims whenever you change your front brake pads to restore quiet, factory-spec braking performance and prevent uneven pad wear.
Replacement of this shim kit is typically performed during a front brake pad change and is a straightforward task for a workshop or an experienced home mechanic. To complete the job properly, this kit should be installed with new front brake pads. You may also require new brake rotors, fresh brake fluid, and caliper slide pin grease. Common tools for this job include a socket set, a C-clamp or piston wind-back tool, a torque wrench, and brake cleaner.
