  Hi, By my notes, there could be two different sized bolts.
  7/16 bolts get torqued to 75 ft/lb and 3/8 bolts tightened to 45 ft/lb.
  Also you probably found out that the "O" ring between the halves is not in
the caliper overhaul kit and must be bought seperately. At least from my
sources.
  Also you probably know that there are two different style bolts holding
the caliper to the spindle. Both 7/16 thread but the later (metric) has a
taper in it. Gee, how do I know this?!
  Good luck; hope this makes sense.
