caliper guide bolt

[Jordan528e]

I tried to do my front brakes last week but was halted when I realized I didn't have the right tools to get the caliper off. Bently didn't specify. I think I'm just going to see if I can find somebody to borrow from. Anybody here know what size of allan head to use when you are removing the front brake caliper off the top of their head?

7mm for the caliper, 5mm for the rotor

But, in all fairness, Shawn, Small components require small hardware if he were removing a caliper from your head, it would be a 3mm fastener.....he he he he!!!!!! :p :p
