hey guys i just got some stoptech rotors and i cant figure out how to get the calipers off ... help

 

unbolt them, then pull

 

which bolts are you talking about... are you talking about the bolts on the back of the calipers or are there other bolts that i have to take off to change out the rotors

 

Once you get the bolts off the rear, 17mm I believe the caliper and bracket should lift off, the rotor will come off, you may have to tap it with a rubber mallet if there is a lot of dust or rust, but all the ones I have seen just come off easy. It's basically a machined fit to the hub, around the wheel studs.

 

arn't the bolts on the back of the brembo caliper hex key fasteners and i found that they were a # 9 or am i trying to take off the wrong thing

 

Nvm guys i found out how to fix it but thanks for the responses

 

How did you get them off? Just pull? or did you need the hex?

I am getting new pads and rotors and I am not sure about the rotors....

 

I need some help on this as well. I removed the caliper fine, and i tried screwing in the 8 mm bolts to pop out the rotors but it didn't work. Instead i popped some spring cup holder somewhere behind the rotor.

 

Don't touch the hex heads. Those split the calipers.

 

I already removed the caliper so that i could change the pads as well. So when i placed the bolts on the rotor the caliper is not attached in anyway.

 

I should have said allen screws not hex heads.

 

ah ok haha. Yeah i didn't touch any allen screws.
