I put a little heat to the carrier with the torch and struck the bolt a few times with a hammer. It came out with difficulty using an 18" snipe. The carrier will need a helicoil but at least I can save it. I also found that the rotor was loose because both screws had been sheared off at some time. Its got the same Textar pads that I bought. Are these OEM?
