ok so my brake caliper wont stay on my spindle thanks to some idiot at napa but any ways in order to fix this would i have to get a whole new spindle or is there another way to go besides helix coil or over size mounting bolts (been there done that) still dosent work any ideas would be great.

also if i have to change spindle what are the steps to that?

Are they completely stripped out? No threads at all, or just cross threaded?

If they're cross threaded, you may be able to run a tap through it from the back side and clean it up.

If the threads are pretty much gone, you'll have to Heli Coil it, or replace the spindle.
