Okay, I am almost 1,000 miles on the brake rebuild job. All is good minus a sheared bolt holding a caliper. My question now is, does the caliper suppose to have a tiny bit of movement? The part in question is the rear piece that the slider pins hold onto the caliper. The caliper is tight to the mounting bracket, and has no movement there. I tightened everything per specs as much as I could. Thanks in advance!

The frame ("mounting bracket") should be bolted tight and have no movement. The caliper itself does move and wiggle because it slides on guide pins to self-center onto the disc.

You sheared a caliper bolt? Was it rusted and weak, or what?

Thanks for the replies. The bolt is still a mystery to me and my brother. All is good now, and have not had issues. The bolts were not showing sign of wear and tear.
