Used brake calipers vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The NP300 Navara (produced from 2015 onwards) uses disc brakes with calipers on the front axle across all variants; the rear setup varies by specification, with some versions running rear disc brakes with calipers and others using rear drums, so confirm which you have before ordering. Check your existing setup or ask your breaker to verify against your registration. Never assume your vehicle has rear calipers without checking first.
The D40 Navara (2005–2015) and the NP300 Navara (2015 onwards) are distinct generations on different platforms, and the brake calipers are not a straight swap between them. The two generations use different hub and carrier designs, so a D40 caliper should not be assumed to fit an NP300 without expert confirmation. Always check with your breaker against your specific registration before purchasing.
Yes, engine specification can influence the brake setup on the NP300 Navara — the 2.3-litre twin-turbo variants may carry a different braking specification to the single-turbo 2.3, as higher-output versions sometimes run uprated calipers or carriers. When sourcing a used caliper, give your breaker your engine code and registration so they can match the correct part. Do not assume all 2.3-litre NP300s share identical calipers.
Trim level alone does not determine brake caliper fitment on the NP300 Navara — a Tekna and a Visia on the same engine and payload spec will use the same caliper. What matters is the engine output and whether your vehicle is the single or twin-turbo variant, along with whether you need a front or rear caliper (NS or OS). Cosmetic differences between trims are irrelevant to the running gear, so focus on engine and drivetrain details when asking your breaker.
Yes, brake calipers are side-specific — the nearside (NS, passenger side) and offside (OS, driver side) calipers are handed opposites and are not interchangeable. Always confirm which side you need before contacting a breaker, and double-check by looking at the failed caliper on the vehicle if possible. Ordering the wrong side is a common and easily avoided mistake.
On a pickup like the NP300 Navara, GVW and payload rating can influence the brake specification, particularly if your vehicle is a higher-rated commercial variant compared to a standard passenger pickup. The brake components on a heavier-rated truck may differ to cope with the additional load. Confirm your vehicle's GVW plate and pass this information to your breaker alongside your registration to ensure you get the correct caliper.
