in2challenges Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Just joined post. Fixing up 95 pathfinder. Any tips on replacing rusted out brake shields/baffle plates? Service manual suggests that you have to press the axle out of the outer bearings before you can replace the plate. Has anyone done this repair? Is the axle fairly easy to press out with a 20 ton press? Also, how difficult is it to remove the lock nut that keeps the outer wheel bearings in the bearing carrier? Is the special Nissan tool a must for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
