Need help....because I am helpless (no really!)
Can someone tell me the details fo the hex head screw on a 951 rear caliper (i.e. lenght, thread count etc...)? This would be the screw that holds the halves together with the little metal bracket. I am coming down to the situation to where I am going to have to get it machined out. With that said they may have to re-tap it and want to give them as much detail as possible so they do not go too deep and wide. I cannot find it on PET. It may be there but I could not find it. Much appreciated.

Are you referring to the two capscrews on each side of the caliper that holds the body to the center piece?
If so, M12x1.5x40 AFJuvat

I believe so. I will take a picture of an example to make certain we are on the same page. Thank you AFJ, you never let me down.

I would think a machine shop can read the tap...

I was able to find them in PET but there is no description other than "repair kit spring plate." AFJ, were these the screws you were thinking of?
