Default Rotor bolt question

What size is the bolt that holds on the rear rotor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is no bolt that holds the rear rotor on the car. The rotor floats on the hub and the wheel holds it in place. Are you talking about the 2 caliper bracket bolts? You do have to remove the caliper bracket to get the rotor off. I believe they are 22mm. I haven't played with them since last year but I am pretty sure.

I think they were 18mm since I had to buy an 18 (my kit had 17 and 19 only). Or are you talking about the center hub (which you dont need to remove for a brake job). The center is 32mm - or is that the Jeep?
