My brakes are squeeling after 85k miles, I presume it's the front. Is there any trick to replacing the pads on the front brakes? Do the slave cylinders just push back in (using a C-clamp) or are they threaded, or some other trick? thanks ken
front brakes on 2000 Maxima

Piece of cake nothing special required except maybe two C clamps as they are dual piston.
I didn't know that the 2k Maxima's had dual piston calipers...
I would recommend opening the bleeder valves prior to compressing the pistons, so that dirty brake fluid is expelled from the brake lines rather than pushed back into the system.
