Brake Caliper BolT?
I know what I am doing with my car. The stuff is monkey with a wrench. At the same time though I have no idea what I am doing because this is the first car I have worked on.

WELLL. I have a 1994 Camaro. I upgraded to 98-02 brakes, and as an idiot i used anti seize on the caliper bolts.

Well one vibrated loose now i am missing a bolt. Where can I find this bolt? Where is the best place to get this bolt?

I'm assuming english isn't your first, second, or third language? I would try (if I comprehend your "sentences") at the dealer or a junk yard. I'm sure it wouldn't be difficult to find.

This. I have to admit I just torque those bolts on. Don't really need to overthink a brake job.

Take the bolt out of the caliper and bring it to lowes... match the thread and find the right length = Done... cost you like 1 buck or so. If you are worried get the auto grade... It's okay to use anti seize... just tighten the bolts to the correct torque spec next time.

I would not use any bolts from Lowe's on any critical piece of hardware on my car. I don't care if they are marked Grade 8 (SAE) or Grade 10.5 (metric) those bolts do not hold up and are not tested per batch for strength.

Thats just my $0.02
