Overview
The Baer Brakes D1041 is a set of rear ceramic brake pads for several full-size trucks and SUVs. It covers the 2004–2010 Infiniti QX56, the 2005–2015 Nissan Armada and the 2004–2015 Nissan Titan. It also fits the 2006–2010 Jeep Commander (XK) and the 2006–2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee (WK), excluding SRT8 models.
The Claw pad design is aimed at daily drivers, with a ceramic compound that is long-lasting, consistent, low in dust and quick to break in. The set holds 4 pads, all for the rear axle, and includes abutment clips and mounting hardware. Several vehicles share this part number, so check year, model and trim carefully against the coverage below.
Key features
- Premium ceramic friction compound aimed at a balance of braking performance and everyday comfort.
- Replacement pad with consistent wear, minimal noise and minimal dust.
- Low rotor wear and long pad life claimed for daily driving.
- Stainless steel abutment and anti-rattle hardware included on most applications.
- Slotted pad face with an attached wear indicator.
- Black backing plate and premium grade type.
Before you fit rear pads
Full-size trucks and SUVs carry more weight than most passenger cars, so their rear brakes see heavier loads when towing or descending grades. Pads designed for these vehicles need to match the rotor size and caliper design of the specific model year. Fitting a pad that is close but not correct can leave the caliper unable to clamp evenly, which shows up as pulling or uneven wear.
Before installation, inspect the caliper slide pins for corrosion and make sure they move freely. The rotor should be measured for thickness and checked for scoring, since a worn rotor can shorten the life of new pads. Many owners also replace the wear hardware at the same time to keep the pads seated correctly.
- Confirm rotor thickness before fitting
- Clean and lubricate caliper slide pins
- Replace worn wear hardware with the pads

Installation notes
Several vehicles share this rear pad set, so check the vehicle’s year, model and trim against the rear applications covered below before fitting. Confirm the abutment clips and anti-rattle hardware are seated, and apply brake lubricant at the contact points, since lubricant is not included. Brake pads are safety-critical, so bed the new pads in gently and test the brakes at low speed before normal driving.
