A banjo bolt is a specialized fastener used in brake calipers to connect the brake line to the caliper itself. It features a hollow design that allows brake fluid to flow through it, ensuring proper hydraulic pressure is maintained when the brakes are applied. The banjo bolt typically has a washer on each side to prevent leaks and is crucial for the effective operation of the braking system. Its design allows for flexibility in routing the brake line while maintaining a secure connection.
The knuckle could be heli-coiled if the damage is not too bad. If the stripped threads are on the caliper, replace the caliper.
It's a fitting most often used on fuel lines. You can tell it's a banjo because it is round and has a hole in the middle where a bolt goes through. the bolt is hollow with holes in the sides for the fuel to flow through. it is popular because you can use it in a 360 degree circle.
To remove a banjo bolt, first ensure that the system is depressurized and that you have the appropriate tools, typically a wrench or socket that fits the bolt. Carefully loosen the bolt by turning it counterclockwise, being cautious of any fluid that may leak out. Once loosened, you can unscrew it completely by hand. Make sure to have a container ready to catch any residual fluid and check for any crush washers that may need replacement.

the caliper bolt should be a 13mm and the bracket or "bridge" bolt should be an 18mm or a 21mm
The Rear Caliper Bottom Bolt head size is 12 mm. The Top bolt is enclosed only making it a slide bolt therefore you cant and really have no need to remove it. So the only bolt you should remove is the bottom 12mm head bolt. Then there will be a 14mm bolt that will hold the Emergency Brake Cable Bracket to the Caliper. Loosen this bolt and remove the Emergency Brake Cable Bracket from the Caliper. Then pry the bottom of the caliper up off the disc. This will allow you to swing the caliper up then push the caliper back to slide the caliper off the enclosed bolt slide at the top of the caliper. This will allow access to the inside and outside pads to remove them and allow you to press and rotate the Piston (Push and Twist-in Pistons) back into the Caliper with the right Brake Caliper Compression tool. The rear two Caliper Bracket bolt head sizes are 18mm. You must remove the Caliper bracket in order to remove the rear brake disc. The Front Brake Caliper Bolt is a 3/8" Allen head bolt. There will be two bolts holding the front calipers to the Spindle. The Front calipers are standard push-in Pistons.
