I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions on taking these off?...I'm in the process of replacing the wheel bearing on the passenger side rear wheel. It seems like Superman torqued down the stupid caliper mounting bolts!!..I don't have access to an impact gun, just the basic tools, and a breaker bar.
Also do I have to release the e-brake to remove this?..is it putting pressure by squeezing the pads together making it more difficult?...I have the car jacked up only on the rear wheel..not both, and i'm reluctant to release the brake for safety.
One more...Do I have to take off the brake line?!..I really don't want bleed the system, Is there enough room to get the rotor out just by moving the caliper assembly?
Also...do you know what exact size socket the axle bolt is?...seems to be a 34mm.
Thanks Prime, Mark
