ZJ rear disc caliper bolt size and tapping?
I mistakenly sort of threaded in one of the caliper bolts on my ZJ disk brakes cockeyed, it is holding for now, but the threads on the bolt are a little messed up and I assume the threads on the backing plate are messed up too...I am going to install a locker this weekend, and while I have the brakes off, try to fix this problem.
I need: 1) A part # for that bolt...Checker auto is stupid...edit: I think it is 5253000 2) Thread size so I can tap out the hole so I don't mess up another bolt 3) Can I do this and still have safely working brakes? Thanks

Yes, take any good bolt and hit any Napa get replacement bolt. Take the bolt and swing by any hard ware store and get a tap and redo the backing plate.
Yes you can still have safely working brakes. |
