3G TL Caliper Bracket Bolt...

Hello gents:

I have searched a bit and can't seem to find a clear answer or route. I seem to have lost the bolt that holds the Caliper bracket to the hub. It has a 17mm head. I have no idea where I can find another one, aside from going to the dealer...

Dont even bother looking any other place then the dealer
They are inexpensive and not worth to go through all the trouble and try to match them

^^^^ agreed.

And OP, you know there are 2 bolts per caliber, right? How do you lose a bolt that size?

FYI, the AT bolts are 12 x 1.25MM and the MT bolts are 14 x 1.5mm.

you need to check the caliper to see if the threading is stripped.

If the threading is stripped (which would allow a bolt to fall out - This happened to me)

see thread: https://acurazine.com/forums/problem...aliper-918996/

If you replace with OEM you will need to buy the entire brake caliper assembly which is like approx $150.

Or.

You can go to o'reilly / pep boys /etc and buy an aftermarket remanufactured brake caliper bracket for approx $20 ....I did this and all good so far.
