Don't suppose you could tell me if my current caliper bolts can be reused with the 256mm calipers? The guy who's breaking the car has rounded the bolt so he's decided to cut the bolt altogether!

iphone pic  :lipsrsealed:



i've got one more question! hopefully the last one before they get fitted. fronts seem fine. but on the rears, the end of the hose is missing/snapped off. can old brake lines be used or do i need new ones?

circled on the image, the bit that's missing.


thanks :smiley:
