Why do you need to replace them? Unless they are highly corroded, you can simply clean them up with a wire brush and apply brake lube. They are called Brake Caliber Slide Pins. If they are in bad shape, replace them. Clean all the area throughly with brake cleaner.

Well after taking off the caliper, and have taken the old pads off. You are going to have to push the caliper cilinder back in with or with-out opening the bleeder ( the nipple on it). After that, you will see a small metal ring that moves around, your brake pad snaps onto that n that is what holds your inner pad into place, the outter pad slides n holds onto the outter part of the caliper. Replace n bleed if you need to.

take wheels off, Open the brake fluid reservoir and place a cloth around it just incase it spills, then there will be 2 hex bolts on the caliper. Depending on the year, could be 1/2 inch or 3/8th. Remove them. Wiggle off the caliper and remove/replace pads. Compress the pistons on the caliper enough to fit over the new pads.

Is there any other hardware that should be replaced when installing new pads and rotors in a 2005 Dodge Caravan?

The caliper (especially the rubber seal around the piston), the caliper slider bolts & seals and the pad clips should all be inspected, however if they are all in good condition there is no need to replace them. Inspect the caliper sliders carefully and if they show any sign of sticking or binding they should be cleaned out and re-greased or replaced if they are rusted. If the rubber boots on the caliper sliders are torn they should be replaced immediately.


Which bolts are the caliper bolts?

The caliper bolts are the long bolts that go horizontally from one side of the mounting bracket, through the top and bottom of the caliper, to the other side of the mounting bracket(if the caliper is supported inside and outside of the rotor, which all the ones I've seen are). The caliper slides on the caliper bolts to adjust to the rotorand usually has expanding dust boots around the boltson both sides of the caliper tokeep the sliding area clean.
