DRIFT INN HOT RODDERS BREAKFAST

Very nice cars, all of them! Thank you for sharing!!
 
And just to spoil my day the truck bites me again. Lost a brake calliper bolt. I have not touched them in the more than 5 years I have owned. Normally they seize or at least take a large power bar to crack them. Go figure! Maybe a name change is needed. Instead of Just Plum Crazy to Just Plain Nasty.

Damn , never heard of that happening before ! Those bolts are torgued prety tight ..

I can tell you on the Dakotas the bolts have a stripping problem for the steering knukle caliper bolt .. leaves 3 choices on mine .. replace the entire knukle ( which is no longer avail. ) or they make a self threading over size ( I used and works but unknown when I have to do the brakes again ) .
Then there is using a heli coil !
Check those threads and use blue loctite .
