    Doing my rear brakes, got a question...

    I replaced the rotors and pads. I tightened the torx bolts for the caliper I tight as I could get them and there is some in/out play. It seems I am out of thread. Any ideas?? Will it tighted when the brakes are applied? Thanks boys!

    If they are tight, that is as far as they go. The caliper will float, as in it is supposed to have some movement so when the brakes are applied, both pads get equal pressure on them:p
