Broken Bolt Caliper Bracket

95 Cutlass Supreme. I broke the caliper mounting bolt off in the bracket. It gets worse I drilled a hole through it then broke a easy out off in it. Does anyone have a bracket for sale or have any suggestions ?

Re: Broken Bolt Caliper Bracket

If it were me, I would use left-handed drill bits and step them up one at a time until you were almost to the threads. Soak it in PB-Blaster or Liquid Wrench for a bit, then go at it with the easy out. Or, if you have an air hammer, hit it with that a few times to loosen it up. Or drill it thin and lightly heat it. There are many options as long as you didn't damage the orig part. If you did damage it, a local boneyard would be the best option, as previously stated.
