I jacked up the front of my car because my brakes where acting funnny.. and noticed that my caliper is moving and its scratching my rim on the inside..Took the tire off and one of the CALIPER BRACKET BOLTS IS MISSING ...does anyone know the size of the bolt? im trying to get a new one at home depot......

If you're talking about the 2 that hold the caliper on then I believe its 17mm. But make sure the bolt u get is automotive grade, I'm not sure Home Depot carries automotive grade bolts. But regardless of all that I suggest removing one of the other bolts and take it so u can match it correctly. U wanna get the correct length and threading too.Originally posted by Dx1990 View Post

The 2 that hold the caliper to the bracket are 14mm. I'm not sure about the 2 that hold the bracket to the knuckle.Comment

Yeah now that I think about it you're right, they are 14mm.Originally posted by Rhonda View PostComment

if you can, get those bolts from a car at the yard. i don't usually trust myself getting reliable bolts for a car from Home Depot. That's just me though, I figure Honda used em, so if you can save em and re-use em, they're good.blackROSE Member, with a focus on VIP Style

Thanks, for now, my car wont go in reverse cause the caliper will catch the inside of the rim and lock the wheel up...i guess i'll try the Jy....Comment

Just get new bolts and slide pins from Autozone.Originally posted by Dx1990 View Post
$6.99 and you get new parts. The junkyards by me would charge more for slide pins.

If you can match the grade of bolt, threading, length, and amount of threading then fine...but much much simpler, and easier on the mind, to just get the bolt from Autozone or the dealer.Comment
