Default Need some help changing pads.

1998 dodge Ram 1500 5.2L

I need to change the break pads on my Ram and I took the wheel off to find that the caliper requires a special Hex key to get off?? What are the specs of the tool required to get this POS off?

I checked the FSM and it was not very helpful

I want to kick the designers *** who thought it was a smart idea to use special bolts on the caliper! [:@]

Egghhh This is why I prefer my G35 C [&:]

It's a standard 3/8" Hex (Allen) Head bolt.

The socket for the calipers is on the left. And your tires should be a 15/16?....LOL... I dunno. I just added it for looks....lol


Good luck.
