Re: Need Quick Answer

it is on the back of the caliper, there should be 2 diff areas that u need to take the bolt off, i havent messed w my brakes for a while, but i cant remember if its an alan wrench or a socket, get under ur car and look behind the caliper and you should beable to see it, sorry i couldnt help more, its been a while and its kind of hard to remember , hopefully someone else will chime in, goodluck

It's an allen head, but I can't remember the size right off the top of my head, I'm still at work.

Thanks for confirming that for me shoebox. I just did that not too long ago and was hoping I remembered correctly.
