2004 rear brake caliper tool

[boyah]

Hi,
There is a star bolt I think on my rear calipers. What tool do I need to break those loose? I have to do a remote rear brake replacement so I cant bring the car to my garge so my tool selection will be limited. I have the harboe freight caliper piston set but I remeber there was a wierd bolt of the caliper but I cant remeber what size. please help!!! Also is there a faq somewhere or a link to the manual?
thanks

I don't think there's tool set that'd work that can be purchased right off the shelve. I use this box type caliper tool... fits in with a 3/8" drive. I got it at Kragen. It's not a flush fit but it works... you'd need to push it down hard and spin it. If it doesn't move, spin it back on and then spin it back down.

im talking about the 2 bolts to remove the caliper not push back the piston....

Oh, yeah. 7mm. Just get the set from Sears, the ones that fit on the 3/8" drive.
