The front caliper bolts are somewhat tricky because of the need for a T-50 torx bit to get the lower bolt out. If one is not available, or like mine, yours has been stripped by a previous owner, you can easily remove it with a good set of vice grips and a bit of muscle. The rears are simply two bolts that are fit into slider pins. If the pin is spinning freely, use a vice grip on it to keep it steady while you undo the bolt. If the slider pin does not spin freely replace immediately. Good luck.
