caliper bolts - obvious? warning 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be Ron Lynes on  Mon Jul 23 03:56 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Here's what happened to me. I replaced front pads and rotors about 2 weeks ago - amazing improvement in steering and braking. A couple of days ago I started to hear a terrible scraping noise from the driver's side front wheel after braking - what could it be I ask myself, after all my hard work - ends up to be a sheared lower caliper bolt - yes the one I had to beat on to remove and then didn't replace with a new one. Now I have the hastle and inconvenience of getting this sheared bolt out. All this after reading someone's recommendation here to replace caliper bolts when doing a brake job! ay.
