Caliper Banjo Bolt Size?
I just recently replaced the calipers with the Autozone "Fenco" calipers and I didn't keep my old banjo bolts. Anyone know what size they take? I tried M10 X 1.50 and they are too big even to fit through the hole on the brake hose. Nobody around here has a good selection of banjo bolts. Everyone has the ones I already have. I think the ones I need are M8 x 1.25. Never thought my entire brake overhaul project would be waiting on stupid banjo bolts. I had to replace the pads, rotors, calipers, brake hoses, all the brake lines up front, and EVEN the frickin hub assemblies!!! This was not a cheap brake project. Everything was rusted to hell.

Check at your local hardware store. If Lowe's or Home Depot doesn't have them (they may not carry them as "banjo bolts", you may have to ask for M8x1.25 bolts), try ACE or TruValu or an equivalent store.
Most places though will sell just about every type of bolt imaginable.

Strange. When I had the brakes re-done on mine 2 years ago, they had to replace the same bolts you're talking about. I asked them where they had gotten the new bolts, and they told me Barney's Hardware (Barney's being our local TruValu store).
shrug.
