Re: painting Callipers (aroulette)
yep, its that "easy" .. 2 bolts.
the trick is that many times, those 2 bolts are tight as *&^%.
be sure to use some penetrating oil, and, even then, they will be tight. :eek:
for specifics, check out C-4 teck tips. There is at least one tip about brake jobs that includes removibg calipers :D

Those 2 bolts should be torqued to 160 - 170 foot pounds I believe. They can be a real bear to get off. As for removing the pads, you better or they may not work any more. :D
What do you plan on painting them with?
