Brake wheel cylinders

[footballnick17]

Any idea on how to remove the brake wheel cylinders, mine need to be replaced and I cannot figure it out. Thanks

Some years have a bolt.  And some years have a clip.  Whichever you have, the bolt or clip will need to be removed first.

The FSM will have drawings.

You got clips.  They're on the outside of the backing plate.  They slide off.  They tend to get dirty and stuck.  Good luck.

Nissan called it a shim.

You're going to run into the newer vs. older style cylinders.  The newer style is way cheaper but the hardline port is sitting in a different location.  I had to bend mine to get them to work on my '72.  Not a big deal but a deal.
