The top bolt doesn't come out. The caliper just slides over it. Unhook the E- Brake cable and unbolt it from the caliper the nut is on the bottom. Then you can swing the caliper up and slide it off it's holder. i just did this on my 90 Laser RS. Oops sorry I didn't see the date this was posted. It just came up when I was posting a new thread. I figured I'd help....not much help 2 yrs later.
