In the process of swapping front brakes/pads to get ready for Brainerd at the end of the month, I stripped out the top hole in the front right caliper. Don't think I got it cross threaded, but when I started torquing it to 85 ft/lb, I noticed it wasn't getting tight.
Took it back out, and had spiraled aluminum on about the last 1/2" of the bolt. Looked in caliper, and sure enough, threads gone.
So now I get to call Tousley/Auto Nation Monday and hope the caliper doesn't cost too much.
Anybody gotten one from them? How does the core charge work? Hate to ship one back--shipping would kill the low price advantage. I guess I'll call the local dealer too.
Thanks
