yep... still working on this 5-lug swap of mine...



still couldnt get the toe control bolt loose, so decided to give a crack at removing just the hub and not the whole assembly... removed both the screws that hold the disc on, and started trying to remove the caliper... when i BROKE the head off the top caliper bolt.... ****** god damnit... i dont even know what to do... i cant remove the caliper with the remainder of the bolt stuck and still remove the disc to get at the hub... and i cant get the toe control bolt loose...



****...

 

6 nuts and 2 brake lines, 2 e-brake cables and 4 d-shaft nuts the whole rear sub comes down. i think you might want to do that and take care of all the fucked up **** that is on the rear suspention man.

 

that isnt on my car... all these problems are comming from my donor car...

 

Unbolt the whole caliper bracket.

 

like the upper, lower and ddts bolts?



edit: ok i see... only problem im having there, is that i cant seem to break the ddts bolt loose... i would heat it up to break up the oxidation, but i also dont want to melt the bushing... any tips? would i be safe rigging up a long breaker bar... or would i risk also breaking the head off that bolt also

 

no there are 2 caliper bolts and two caliper bracket bolts, at least IIRC. just remove the 2 bigger caliper bracket bolts to remove the whole caliper as one piece.

thats what im trying to accomplish, but the head i broke off is on the bracket...

 

Is it the bracket or the "top caliper bolt"?

 

yea im gonna go with i dont have a clue. even if you snap a bracket bolt you should be able to take the other off and then just jockey the whole caliper assembly off.

sorry for the confusion... so heres a pic of the bolt i broke...







sorry for the quality, something is wrong with my camera...
