WTB: Caliper bolt

Registered
I am looking for a caliper bolt (one of the two that hold caliper). Mine is stripped and dealer near me does not carry them. Actually, he told me that he could order a whole box of 10 but I would have to buy all.

This is for 2001 Lincoln Continental. Front caliper bolt. Lincoln part # is F30Y-2N386-A.

Thanks.
 
Stripped caliper bolt!? Hopefully its just the head....

Ask Jamie, the M8 one could be the same. Also, clarify if its the bolt to slide pin, or bolt to spindle (bracket bolt).
 
It is just the head. I think it was hit with something because I wasn't able to fit the wrench. Then I sort of stripped it trying to remove it.

Fortunately, I have found a replacement bolt and pins at AutoZone for $4.99 (set of two). Now, dealer wanted something like $18.xx for just the bolt (no pin).

Thanks for replying. I am going to try to remove the bolt tonight or tomorrow.
 
Sweet, good thinking! To remove the bolt use a hammer and a chisel, works great because the chisel digs into the metal and you can turn it counter-clockwise to loosen it.
