brake help !!

Ok, I'm looking to replace my pads. I took off the wheel, and seee the caliper on the rotor. There are two larger bolts, and two smaller ones that have small little rubber boots on them. The bigger bolts (the upper one) is blocked by the brake lines. So, which ones do I remove > The bigger ones that mount the whole caliper to the truck, or the smaller ones that kinda hold the innner portion (pads) to the caliper ??

thanks for your help guys !!

this is for a 2004 4 x4 F150 sscrew

You need to remove the bigger ones that hold the caliper to the hub.
