help plz rear brake caliper bracket
hi all i need help i have all the rear caliper of i need to change discs but i can not get the caliper bracket of i have the hex bolt out from the top but the bottem one i can not get into because of the angles i can get
it from is there a special tool i need because i cannot get a socket and wrench in there because of the limited space ?

its an a4 dtm b7

thanks

 

Not sure if there is a tool or not, but when I did mine a few months ago, me and a buddy had to unbolt the bottom end of the shock to get clearance. Once the shock is unbolted you can compress it up out of the way.

It took both of us to get the caliper bolt out and both of us to get everything reassembled. Probably not a one person job.

Hope that helps

 

thanks for the reply mate but i finally got round it i nearly did what u was saying . i managed to fine a 1/4 drive alan socket that was only 28mm long put it on a little ratchet and job was done . for anyone wishing to do this make sure u get this alan socket first otherwise u will be putting it all back togeather again like i did also make sure u have a good 1/4 drive ratchet because u have to put it through a bit of torque i had a very very cheap one and i broke lol

 

lol, it's almost like 2 spambots having a conversation....
