Wtb front passenger brake caliper bracket with slider bolts....

[baseballfan416]

Replacing brakes this morning and one of the slider bolts on passenger side is essentially seized with the rubber boot almost completely shredded. Looking for a front passenger side brake caliper bracket (ideally with the bolts).

Heat on the bracket where the slider pin is plus an impact gun to spin it out, after clean slider pin replace boot and clean the inside of the bracket pin area.

So the bolt moves but it only comes out part way... Are you guys saying I can technically reuse the bolt and bracket with a new rubber boot, assuming I can heat the bracket and actually get the bolt to come out?

Yes, there is a 14mm bolt that goes into the slider pin...the bolt holds the caliper to bracket.
Now sounds like ur slider pin is stuck and I bet it's the lower one, just try to spin it out since it's moving while pulling at same time with pliers.
If completely stuck one needs to heat the bracket and than spin pin.

To answer ur question... Definitely one can reuse just make sure it's nice and clean, a drill bit works perfectly as long as it's same size as pin to clean inside the bracket, as for pin just wire brush.. Lube all with new boot and good to go.

Also the problem is do to no maintenance but mostly the stupid rubber insulator rubber ring at the end of the pin and I bet that is what is stuck, it's just for sound repression and really serves no other reason so don't use it.
