Comments about Dorman - Help Brake Caliper Bolts - Oversized 2-3/16 Inch:
This over-sized self tapping caliper mounting bolt worked perfectly for my '01 Dakota. I thought I was going to have to replace my entire steering knuckle, then researched and found out about this. A real life and money saver.

Comments about Dorman - Help Brake Caliper Bolts - Oversized 2-3/16 Inch:
While the ideal repair would be installing a Heli-Coil, most part stores don't carry the kits - and most people don't have much experience using them. Note that using more than one kit per caliper is NOT recommended.
This bolt kit is a "Problem Solver" - but corrosion and wear will eventually require some form of thread insert for permanent repairs.

Q:
what size allen wrench do i need to take off the caliperAsked on 4/9/2010 by Anonymous2 answers
A:
It's not an allen wrench. It's a size 45 torx that fits the caliper bolts.Answered on 4/22/2010 by Shep from Cherry Tree, PAA:
It is Not necessarily a T-45 Torx Bit, as for Different Models of Dakota's only off by 1 Year have different sized bolts, and on mine whoever fixed it before me had 4 different Caliper Bolts. 7mm Allen Wrench is what fits the aftermarket replacement bolts I bought (very close to the T-45) however the 2 bolts on the other side were a smaller sized allen wrench But defintely NOT Torx T-45 on the 1998 4x4 Dodge Dakota (3.9L V6)~ It fits but would strip out the similar sized Allen Key Holes.Answered on 7/23/2011 by Dean from Edgewater, FL
Q:

CUSTOMER CARE
A:
If the bolt is not getting tight, then they may be the possibility that the threads are stripped out and need to be tapped and re-threaded.Answered on 1/4/2010 by Mike from Advance Auto Parts
