So I realized that the 2 bolts that go through the caliper are stripped and they are a pain in the ass to take off. Today is my day off and it is raining so i can't go back and take the measurements of the bolts so I was wondering if anyone knew what size bolts these were and if i could get them at any hardware store, if not where I can get them?
 
If you are referring to the long bolts that hold the caliper onto the bracket, these are called guide pins are not simple bolts. You will need to get OEM parts.
 
Check your local autoparts store. These are definitely not a plain bolt and I believe the are grade 8 on top of that. Here is a link to some however you will need to put your information in to get the appropriate set. They are slightly different from front to rear and also dependent on your model/year.

ok thanks a lot, i just ordered 2 sets of the front pins for my car now and will resume trying to get the stripped pins out once i get these new ones to put in.
