You'll find them at the front of your car, adjacent to the wheels, on both sides.

No need to thank me  :)

Technically, you'll also find them on the rear.

Try Bigg Red. Then probably be able to help with banjo and washers, but probably not the carrier to hub bolts.

Just Google 10mm Banjo Bolt, they're available from all sorts of places for very little money.


I suspect the caliper bolts use a specific sized shank, and will probably be Vx only. A quick check with a digital caliper will confirm that.

Looks about right for the bolts.

Why aren't you reusing them?

This. Clean them up, re-thread lock and torque to spec. Also, if you're going to this much trouble, why not change the nipple too? Also make sure you have a nipple cover, it helps to stops them rusting in

Well if it was that easy I wouldn't be asking the question  :D

Yep have replacement bleed nipples already for them  :y

The existing calipers are Brembo 18Z six pots that are going to be used elsewhere, the used pair of calipers I have been refurbishing to fit are missing the specified bolts  :y

It's all part of a long term plan  8)

When the time comes, swapsy swapsy.

What do the Brembo calipers use to attach to the knuckle?
