[QUOTE="tiny, post: 394151, member: 5467"] The reason your caliper is falling off might not be the bolt. What happens is the top leg of the caliper bracket can bend or stretch forward. Because that is the only thing holding the caliper back under braking (moving forward). So when that happens a gap opens up on the H slide and the bottom of the caliper pops out. You can lengthen the H slide to have more reach when that gap opens up. I drilled and tapped mine to 7/16 and used big fender washers just so I didn't have to use those little factory ones. [/QUOTE]
