    Yep those are the ones. I find it very difficult to get the bolts off
    without applying it.

  5. I remember years ago when a friend had an obvious rotor pulse.
    Machining the rotors made no difference. Changing pads and replacing
    rotors still made no difference.

    The whole problem disapeared when he bought a new set of tires...

    Really? I wonder why? In sixteen years I've never had a problem with
    removing the bolts from the pins. Usually the problem is removing the pins
    from the pad mount bracket, that being unrelated to the use of anti-seize.

    Anti-seizes are petroleum-based and will rot your rubber pin boots.

    Try the simple approach, grasshopper.

    http://www.dowcorning.com/

    Navigate to the holy M77 page from there.

    Does that help?

    I only apply it to the threaded section of the bolt and even then it
    is just a thin layer, besides even if they rot, they cost so little
    and are easy to replace. I will keep in in mind.

    Thanks,
    Nick
