Need brake help fast.........

Im replacing my rear caliper with a reman. I can't get the piece that holds the pads in place off of the caliper... there's the one bolt that holds it in place...... then on the other side, there is nothing to unscrew..... how do i get this thing off?

Undo the bolt.

Then slide it off. There's a rubber boot that sits on the other side, it's got a lip under it, just work the boot off of the caliper slider.. The frame is only held on by that single bolt.

the frame appears to have a pin on the other side that slips into the caliper..... this pin isn't budging.... when i spin the fram, the pin doesn't move..... how can i get this thing unfrozen... whats up with the cap on the other side? can i get that off and hammer the pin out?

ok... nevermind. The bolt that holds the other side snapped. It was seized in the caliper and wouldn't slide through.

NEEDED: Drivers side rear caliper frame with pin. Not the caliper. The frame that holds the brake pads. PM me. I'll put an ad out too.

Thanks,

Matt
