I can't find the right size to unscrew my front brake calipers?
Feb 26, 2009 by answer master | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs
I'm trying to save some money by changing the brake pads on a 97 pontiac sunfire myself, but i've hit a big wall. i can't seem to find the right sized torx bit that fits into the two screws that holds the front calipers together. I've tried T-55 but it's
It's T-55.... tap the bit in with a hammer. More than likely rust and grime have built up making it appear too big. Good luck.
