Stop by your local NAPA store and ask them for part # BK675-1539. It's an oversize caliper bolt that will cut new threads while you're screwing it in the hole. $20.99 each but well worth the money and saves a lot of hassel.

I have one in the front of mine. Been there for 6 years and never had a problem with it. Had it in and out several times and still working great!
