Primaster rear discs

ORVEE

Hey guy's,

Does anybody know how handy it is to change the rear dics on an 08 Nissan Primaster. I think the new discs come with the wheel bearings included.

Will i need some pullers to remove the discs?

If the new discs have the bearing included then I would expect that you would just have to remove the large nut holding the bearing in place and then remove the whole lot from the stub axle .
The nut can be very tight and its usually recommended that you use new nuts when refitting ( as they are self locking and intended to be only used once).
Try Google also .

Tried Google, but couldn't find anything similar. But thank's anyway.

Had a look on a few sites and rear discs for a Primastar don't seem to include the bearing - and would be changed in the normal way .
Remove brake caliper (bolts can be very tight - use threadlock when refitting and torque figures would be useful ).
Disc may be held in place with screw or some type of washer threaded onto wheel studs .
Make sure to clean new discs thoroughly before fitting ( use brake cleaner or similar ).
Clean all rust etc from hub before fitting new discs.

Just came on another site showing discs that include bearing housing -and available with or without bearing. If you don't have access to a press then get the one with bearing fitted .
You need exact details of van to find out which disc needed - year, engine cc etc .

Changed them in the morning. New disc's came with the bearing's. No problem removing them. Only problem was removing the brake carrier, which is normally the easy part.

Really tight and not much room for leverage when doing them on the ground. Also the brake hose gets in the way of one of the bolt's, so it took a little longer than i taught.
