Hey guys,
Was attempting to change to kingpin, but looks like one of the bolts holding the brake caliper on is rounded off, so before i take it off should probably get a new one to go on as might have to drill it out. Does anyone know where to get one from by any chance?
Cheers!
Tom

12mm bolts hold the caliper to the pad carrier and 17mm bolts hold the pad carrier to the hub

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationdrilling bolts is an absolute last option !! any decent mechanic with half a clue will own a set of extractor sockets , be them by snap on or irwin ask around local garages and see if someone is up for a wee homer 
low price to pay to get out a deep hole !!
