Theride Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Does anyone know the size of the TOP radiator support bolts? I was changing my rotors and read that you can use them to pop the rotors off. I tried and now they are shreded because it seems they were too big for the rotor holes. I had to use the bolts holding the ABDS/WHEEL SENSOR?..to the struts to get the rotors off.

Max Capacity Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 8mmx1.25 Go to the auto parts store and ask the guy to show you where the packages of nuts and bolts are. You can buy a kit for about $8.00 Next time put anti-seize compound on the threads before you thread them into the rotors. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs.

Theride Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Appreciated. I'm still puzzled as to why both bolts stripped and the ones connecting the ABS?...didn't strip. I got it rectified however. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
