socket size to remove bottom guide pin on front brake calipers?
socket sizes to remove starter-to-engine bolts?

I'm at work, need info, can't access the car currently. Can someone help me? N/M Just need it for starter-to-engine bolts.

 

12, 13, or 14...i just took it off and i cant remember...but it is one of those

 

Its a 14mm.

 

I know for sure the starter ones are 14mm, pretty sure the brakes are 14 also (if not, then 12)

 

I agee with craig .Brake caliper boilts are 12mm I think

 

Get one of these:

 

I gotta get one, mine was stolen

 

Fortunately, the ones that I left in my car weren't but that still leaves me with 8,10,12,14,15,17mm

I thought I'd rotate the tires while I was changing the front pads also, now the car's steering wheel is steer'd to the left instead of the right

 

you seriously dont even need all that.
For most of the stuff on the car, a 10, 12, 14, 17, 19, 21, 27, 36mm socket(having both deep and standard can prevent some headaches) will be all you need. + Philips and Flathead (a few different sizes helps too). A set of pliers and some wrenches are nice too. (I started out small but kind of kept going )

 

heh.. yup..

you can remove the engine with $40 worth of tools. scary.

 

it only takes $10 on my smallblock

 

thats because you have to replace them so often

 

9/16 socket
9/16 wrench
1 ratchet.
all I need.

 

Now's a good time to get

if matt wants to update his FAQ page for changing pads, the socket size is 14mm for the lower guide pin. there is alot of grease+dirt on the passenger side brake line where it meets up with the caliper
