Hello, I'm Danny.

The sleeve bolt is on the bottom to remove the rear brake caliper.It is 13mm. After removing the sleeve bolt pull the caliper up off the brake pads and slide inward to remove.Are you removing to change the brake pads? I've attached a picture below for reference.Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
