Gone to-do my discs an pads to find a bolt hanging out the O/S/F caliper, 99% of the threads are missing, any one got a caliper going cheap? 😭

Sorry can't help on the caliper side of things but you could put a helicoil in or get a cheap tap and die set and tap it out and put another bolt in, would be cheaper than a caliper

That's what I'm thinking too, just mean car is stuck on a ramp for 9days as I go away tomorrow 🙈

Hastings on the south coast lol just looking at thread sizes, any one confirm that M12 X 1.5 sounds about right for helicoil?
