      yes I had to drill the heads off mine just to get the rotor off so I could get the vicescrips and het in the rest of the bolt.

      Also when you put the new bolts in, antisize is your friend

          I agree!

          Brakes were VERY simple. You don't even need the bentley really.

              might as well rebuild your calipers. Rebuild kits are cheap, see pelicanparts or call bma. If you dont have one, get a pressure bleeder. I like speedvalves too. Take a look at your ebrake while your at it, could use some new shoes. Get some nice DOT 4 like ate.

                Unlikely that parking brake shoes are worn unless you've been driving with the handbrake on. More likely that the hardware is corrroded to shit.
