hey all i know that there are many threads on this subject already, and i know the common solutions to the problem, heat and a bfh. but there is also the bolt method where you use the caliper mounting bolt holes.

this leads to my question, any one know what size threads those holes are. they are 10mm on the head but what is the thread. i beat on the drivers side rear for a while with a 3 lb sledge and a few wacks with an 8lb hammer to no avail so i want to try the bolt method

First did you loosen the adjusting mechanism inside the "E" brake, it's like the old drum adjusters ?

I think if you do the bolt thingie just use a bolt that is smaller than the hole and put a jamb nut on it. Then turn the jamb nut to put pressure on the disc.
