WisconsinSS Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Hey I am looking for ideas. I am trying to replace the front brake rotors on my son's 94 grand prix. I can't get the bolts that hold the caliper holder out. They are the big ones with the t-60 torx head. I bent my breaker bar . Any ideas? heat, C-4 ? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Soak morning and night with WD-40; try to loosen again every night, but it might take 2-5 days time for the oil to penetrate the rust. I just did it a month ago on my frozen exhaust collector nuts and it worked fantastic. (edit - it only took 36 hours) Mr. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_forma Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 also could try that liquid wrench stuff, it has helped me out a few times with bolts that were stuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tawss04 Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 I came across the too many times when Iworked at the dealer. Broke a few sockets and breaker bars. Heating them up with a torch will work just fine. They lock tight them in from the factory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
