Murderous rage!!!
One week. I've spent ONE ******* WEEK trying to change my goddamn brakes, and so far I only have the front drivers side done.
I'm trying to get the passenger side caliper off, and I think that ****** is welded in. Every day I go out and soak it in PB blaster, then hit it with the impact wrench... Nothing. Good 'ol fashioned socket, ratchet, and grunting... Nothing.
Yes, I'm sure I'm turning it the right way.. lol
Please, does anyone have any other suggestions? I'm nearing the breaking point of paying a shop to change my brakes for me because of this one goddamn bolt. I don't have a blowtorch, but if the only option left is to turn the caliper red and try it then... Well I guess that's what has to be done.

Also, anyone know how necessary the brake pad shims are? The ones that were on the old pads were shot, and no auto parts store carried them around here so I went without. Seems to be quite a bit of noise coming from the front brakes now...
