caliper bolts

jasonslaphead · Jul 11, 2009

Im replacing the calipers on an early 200tdi disco rear axle and the bolts holding the calipers to the axle have disappeared. I believe they are 7/16 unf however can anyone confirm this as they are almost £5 each so I would like to be certain before buying. Also should I be using a spring washer or flat washer with these? Being brakes I want to make sure I do the job right.
If anyone has the part numbers/ diagram it would be appreciated

I dont know the sizes, but I've dealt with
Stagonset Stainless Nuts and Bolts, Screws and Fasteners
who are stainless steel nuts and bolt suppliers and they are cheaper than a fiver.
They are worth a look for anyone needing fastners.

Never use stainless for caliper bolts , get some genuine ones.

The bolts ar emade for purpose stainless may well be too strong (brital) and not up to it stick to standard. Jai
