I'm trying to change the brake pads and rotors of my 2002 mustang. I cannot get the rear calliper bolts to unscrew, they will not budge. Is there something I need to do to get them to release first. I have changed the front brakes before without any problems with the caliper bolts. Do you have any suggestions how to get these bolts off?

Thanks For Your Help!

Alot of force. I usually use 2 wrenches. Put the box end of wrench on bolt, then use another wrench as leverage. (Put the box end of the other wrench over the open end of the first wrench) this usually gives you enough leverage.
