Pabz Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 The top caliper bolt (10mmm) that the caliper pivots around when assembling snapped on my convertible. I drove for a couple weeks without knowing. Has this ever happened to anyone? I just got a replacement caliper bolt set and an ez-out and fixed it up. Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 about the rear calipers? Ive never heard of one breaking until now. But glad you got it fixed! Quote
1990lumina Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Never heard of one breaking before...but after seeing some of the other pictures of under that car I wouldn't doubt it lol.. Quote
RJansen658 Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 Yea, Ive had one break taking them off before, I just heated it up red hot and out she came. Quote
Brian P Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 never had that issue. I guess you're talking about the fronts if you're referring to the vert! Quote
slick Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 I've had one back out and fall off on the road while driving before. I had even checked to make sure everything was nice and tight before putting the wheel back on, not sure what happened. Quote
