brake caliper bolts

So this week my brake caliper decided to come out of place while driving home from class, I pulled the wheel of the see what caused it to happen and sure enough, one of the brake caliper mounting bolts was missing. I called the dealership to see if they had any in stock which they didnt and they said that bolt would cost me $18 to replace, so now i plan on just going to my local hardware store to find one. Does anybody know the correct size/pitch of those bolts?

 

i doubt the local hardware store will sell you one strong enough. dont take the risk get the right hardware. who did your brakes last??

 

a place here in santa barbara that specialize in working on toyotas

 

hey whats up man....take out the other caliper bolt and go to a hardware store....or specialty took (in sb)

 

I would get them to replace it... Then tighten it myself... Then never go back there!

 

well i had to order one online, it just sucks because i wont have a car for another week. I tried to take out the other one to size match but they where to tight and most my tools are in san diego. I didnt want to take it back there because I would have to have it towed there and last time i had it there they were replacing a pin for my brake pads that they forgot to put back the first time i had it there. So I would rather save my time and do it myself.

 

if you are ever in sb and need help let me know....ive had my truck completely torn down sooooo many times.

brakes are crazy easy on these trucks

 

thanks man, Ill definatly keep that in mind, i live in IV and dont have a garage so i couldnt bring many tools up here.
