Default Got the manual
But of course they don't have nut and bolt sizes, So what's the size of the axle nuts if ya don't mind. Thanks, ***** Ps caliper bolts too, they look special.

Calipers are just 12 point 10mm and if I remember correctly the axle is a 22 or 24 mm of the top of my head.

Some of the info is in the manual you get the parts manual and its all in there. Then you can get the electric diagnostic manual for more information on the wiring and trouble shooting.

The rear axle 36 mm, front axle I use 15/16" its probably metric too but thats my socket the calipers are 10mm 12 point socket nothing special. Good job on getting the manual spend some time with that manual you will benefit greatly from it.

If you really want to get **** about it, you could jot down all the nut and bolt sizes for the common areas you plan on working on. The torque specs are in the beginning of each chapter.
