Narrative:

On mar/wed/05; aircraft X was in ZZZ1 for layover check. The #4 main brake was found worn to limits. The #4 main brake was changed per the aircraft maintenance manual. On mar/thu/06; I was informed that aircraft X landed in ZZZ2 on flight abc and that the brake rod was found disconnected from #4 main brake and that the brake had spun resulting in damage to the hydraulic and electrical lines. When I was told this I thought what would make the brake spin on the axle. The first thing I thought of was that the pin had come loose of the brake rod. I know for a fact that the pin was installed because I installed the cotter pin for the bolt and castle nut that holds the pin in. The second thing that I thought of was that the end cap may not have been installed and by not installing this part although the bolt and nut were installed; the pin could just come out; but I cannot verify this and third the bolt just broke.
