    Need the size/pitch of the rear brake caliper bracket bolts (bracket to suspension, not caliper to bracket). Also what grade of bolt. I rounded off one of mine. Thanks.

    take it to a hardware store, find a nut that fits the old bolt, you now know what bolt you get by the nut's specs. grade 5 should be ok. 8 is always best tho.

    Well I'd like to know the size before taking it apart. I rounded off the old bolt the last time I had it apart, was able to use it though, figure it'll get even more chewed up when it's removed again. Anyone know?
