What size Allen key for Holden barina caliper bolt?
I changed the brakes on a 1997 Holden Barina SB today (21/5/11). You will need a 10mm Allen key to take off the brake housing. Do yourself a favour and buy a set of Allen key type attachments for a ratchet. Makes it much easier.

How do you change the front drum brakes on a ford wind-star mini van?
The front brakes on the Windstar are disc brakes. The rear brakes are drum type. You need to know exactly which parts need to be changed and why. If it is just the pads its pretty easy to do. But if the rotors are bad too, you will need to remove the calipers to access them then re-install the calipers with new pads. If you are not sure what you are doing seek advice from a mechanic

How do you fix siezed brakes?
If the brakes are disc brakes then try opening the bleed screws on the calipers and see if the pressure releases if not then remove the calipers and replace because the piston is probably frozen or you can try pushing in the piston with a c-clamp,if that doesnt work replace the calipers as noted. If the brakes are drum brakes then check your brake cylinders to see if they are leaking if so you can usually rebuild them if not then replace them and bleed your brake system to get brakes back to normal, you can also make sure your drum brakes are adjusted correctly.
