I can't seem to find this info. I saw it somewhere one time...

Anyone know the bolt/thread sizes that mount the caliper to the front spindle?

Thanks guys!

You mean the slider bolts? If so, the P-Book doesn't specify the info you're looking for because they are highly specialized.

To be honest, I've had a brake swap so long that I forget what the original set up looks like.

I'm looking for the bolts that thread into the front spindle. The same ones that would be used to attach a bracket for a brake swap.

Thanks!

As far as I know they're all the same, M11 x 1.5, 65mm long, TORX 50 or 8mm hex head. I shopped a long time and actually bought multiple sets, but I'm using the originals, as suggested by the forum. Most of the ones you can buy are hex head and not as strong as the ones you likely have on your car. I can probably check the details this weekend if you really need to know.

I would simply take one to Fastenal and have them verify the thread for you, they will have a gauge there to check it. I would do it for you, but by the time I could get a bolt to the nearest location, they will be closed.. :'(
