Answer
Hi Derek -

I believe these are the caliper mounting bolts you are speaking of. I did not get the year and model of your vehicle, so I am guessing where it is.

Anyway, be careful. These bolts (as well as the caliper bolts) are SAE rated, and must be purchased from the dealer or sometimes carried by outside atores, however, it must be designed for use with the brake system. Generic bolts will fail.

Hope this helps -
