Urgent: '01 Navara Brake Problem

Funkfield

Hi,

Was hoping someone on here could help me.

My '01 Navara just failed its DOE as the left front brake caliper and the back right brake have seized. Without seeing it a mechanic has told me I'll need to replace the left front caliper and parts of the back brake.

I have looked online to try and find a front caliper with no luck. I am unsure as to what parts I'll need to get to fix the back brake.

Would anyone know exactly what I'd need to get? And where I might get them?

I know I don't have too much info here but I'm only going on the DOE fail report. A new front caliper would fix that wheel, but I'm not too good on Navara back brakes. What would I have to get to fix the back, if I wanted to replace all the brake components?

Thanks in advance.

You probably know not to go near a dealer for parts . Cheapest is likely to be Milner in the UK, link direct to Navara D22 brakes - http://www.milneroffroad.com/categories.asp?cID=10232&p=1

No nothing about Navaras but they can't be that different to anything else, the rear brake could either be a seized brake cylinder or seized handbrake actuator in the drum stopping brake from applying, most likely the cylinder. You really need to pull it apart first but Milners prices are so cheap you may as well buy a cylinder and a set of rear shoes at the same time anyway. What state are the front discs and pads in? Save postage and do everything while you're at it.

Thanks a million for the heads up about Milner.

Very helpful people. Very cheap too.

Everything I needed delivered to the door for under €200. And €30(ish) back to me when I send them my old caliper.

Cheers!

Glad it's worked out
