Hi guys,

I was replacing the rear left brake pads and accidentally stripped both caliber bolts.

Didn't find out both threads were stripped until I try to thread back the bolts after installing the pads.

The bolts went into the caliber bracket without issues. But it won't tighten up. As I continue to turn the bolt, it will seem to hit resistance, but then I make one more turn and the bolt loosens up.

I managed to turn it where the bolt is having a little resistance to the turn.

The anti rattle clip went on fine.

I am leaving it in the garage until my replacement caliber bracket and bolts come in so I can replace the threadbare brackets. I will also use new bolts just to be safe.

My question is, how dangerous is this caliber right now?

Do you guys think it's a big safety harzard?
