How to replace rear calipers on 98?
All,

I'm planning on replacing the rear calipers on my 98 this coming weekend and was wondering if there are any how-to's? Advice?

Also what is the proper bleeding sequence for a ABS equipped 98 Maxima.

TIA

It's actually very easy. Two bolts that hold it to the carrier, one banjo bolt and the e-brake cable. It shouldn't take you more than 15 min per side. Just make sure you bleed the system, and dont get any brake fluid on the paint, as it will eat right thru.

Good luck!
Danny

Have you ever changed brake pads before? If so you bleed out the brakes before hand and same procedure but you have a hose to take out.
