Hi all. Over the weekend, I the jackass stripped the 12 mm bolt that holds the brake pads to the caliper. I did change the pads just by twisting it upright and sliding new pads in. However, when the time comes to replace the rotor, I will have to take that bolt out. Any ideas of how to proceed?

 

use an easy out. The name is generic and most people know what they are at Lowe's or Autozone. You drill a hole in the bolt andthen there is a reverse thread tool that you run in reverse in the hole and it removes the bolt. Go to auto parts store first they will be more heavy duty use.
