Re: removing calipers

Couple ways:
Best way is by heating the mounting points on the CAR (where the threaded ends of the caliper bolts are) with a "Bern-zo" (MAPP gas) hand torch(available in any hardware/dept. store) to make the mounting holes expand so whatever's got the bolts seized will burn/crumble off.
They'll loosen up nicely. Just don't heat the caliper body itself too much as you don't wanna distort/crack things. Keep the heat away from the brake hoses, too.
