Brake question

[BK24]

What size Torx bit do I need to remove the caliper?

 

[unclesams_svt]

Front or rear?

 

[unclesams_svt]

I belive that there is a how-to for removing calipers under one of the break changing how-to's

 

[BK24]

Front. I'm guessing it's a 55.

Yes, I checked there first. All it says is to remove the bolts.

 

[BK24]

Dang, noone knows what size it is?

I don't know the size but just get a 3/8 drive kit that has all the sizes in it, they cost about $15.

 

[BK24]

Thats what I did, said hell with it as I am sure I will need other sizes eventually.

There are no torx dude. Im pretty sure they are 18mm. Just did my brakes last week and I cant remember.

 

[BK24]

Sorry dude but mine has Torx head bolts. Changed the pads today, can't remember if it was a 50 or a 55.
18mm? IIRC Lugnuts are like 12mm....

yea, its a Torx bit you need, its T45 IIRC

 

[runs2rch]

I have an 04. Did brakes all the way around. No torx.

I thought I used a 50. Bought a set like was advised above and just shuffled through and found the one that fit.

Great minds think alike.
