trying to change pads on 93 300E. Any tricks on loosening the bolts that hold the calipers on? Sprayed CRC thinking about using breaker bar but, wanted to check with you first to see if they could be threaded differently

Thanks

 

it's a normal thread pattern.

crc cannot penetrate inside. try wd-40

 

For my 93 MB, the calipers stay bolted on and just pins slide out to replace pads. Sorry to hear you have to remove calipers.

Thanks for the info. Have not taken the calipers off yet will look to see if it can be done without removal. Had to do it on other vehicles, just figured I needed to do the same


Thanks

 

Yeah on my 300sdl and 560sel u just remove the pins. But dont feel bad the first time i did the brakes on my 300 i did the same thing.
