what do you do???

poneypower89 · Oct 27, 2006

When you trying to changed out the pads on ur disc brakes and one of the caliper bolts is rusted, stuck, and on the verge of being completely stripped???

I battled with mine for 45 minutes, gave up on it... and put the wheel back on..

I would like to get this done though..

Ewwww... I don't know of a drill bit that'll go through a caliper bolt

There's a special type of bit that'll grab onto the inside part that is stripped I think... try a CarQuest or Napa

I know I used to see them on TV

Pb Blast it and let it sit overnight.

Heat the crap out of it! Get a caliper rebuild kit before you start though. The rubber diaphram and dust seal may melt or burn.

poneypower89 · Oct 27, 2006

yea, PB blast might be a better idea..

I sprayed wd-40 on it.. pretty much just made the bolt easier to slip off of

And bang on it with a wrench to set it into the cracks

I actually got out the torch.. then put it back because of that reason..

Rstang suggested pb blaster to me, and when wd40 didnt even come close to working pb blaster did. That stuff works great, give it a shot.

Just don't heat it up with the PB on it.

I would also like to state that I had to lay under the car and kick the wheel just so IT would come off the wheel studs

yep spray it, let it sit, hit it a few times with something like a wrench like said before, spray some more, and let it sit. Spray some more, hit it some more, then get a good grip on it and give it all you got.

Wed. when I was changing my wheels, I had 2 studs compltley stripped, when I tried taking off the lug nuts, it felt like I was tightening them, sprayed pb blaster on them, hit them a few times with a hammer and screw driver, took some force but they came out.
