Disc Brake Bolts
« on: 17 May 2014, 11:53:45 »
Anyone know the thread and size of the bolt that holds each disc brake in place (2001 Omega MV6)?  I managed to round mine off a while back.  Currently not running with them on, but what a pain in the rear to put the wheels on without them  >:(

I'm about to do a complete brake overhaul along with GTO calipers, new pads and disc all around..might as well get this sorted out!  :y :y :y

Fronts are M6 .... not sure how long probably about 5 or 6mm

I never had the rear disc/drum off  :-\

The allen/hex bolts are the same all round. They should only be done up finger tight, as wheelbolts are the real fixing.
