Size of torx wrench for brake caliper??
I'm getting ready to do the brakes on my 98 Expedition, and
need to buy a torx type of socket to remove the calipers.

What is the size that I need to buy?

Go ahead and splurge, buy the complete set. You may need the other ones sooner or later.

On my 98 Exp it's a T45. If you are not replacing the rotors, just take one bolt out (bottom on driver's side and top on pass side, IIRC) and rotate the caliper up/down.
