Hi all, was going to replace my rear discs today but to my surprise found the calliper mounting bolts were of the spline variety. Can anybody tell me what size they are? Snoops

13mm ring spanner will fit them

Hi robint, thanks for your quick reply will try that tomorrow. They look pretty corroded & i was very surprised to find them fitted instead of a normal hex head bolt.

Get a decent 13mm 12point socket. pref 1/2" drive and a big bar as they can be a tad on the tight side when you try to undo them
