Removing Caliper Issue

[azn12icefarme12]

So I bought Brembo blanks and EBC Greenstuff pads for my 03 Camry. I'm trying to change them right now and I'm having major issues with getting the caliper off. I know you have to remove 2 bolts as shown in DIY Front rotor replacement and Centric ring install (3rd picture) but it won't budge. I've tried soaking it in WD40 (probably isn't really helping). Any tips?

Using a large, fat scredriver, did you pry/push the pads back away from the disk to allow some space?

if this is the first time you are changing them, the bolts might be rusted on. go pick up a can of pb blaster, that will work much better than wd40

The easiest thing to start with is get a wrench with a longer handle. I ended up using my torque wrench which had a handle about 50% longer than my normal wrench and it made removing those bolts MUCH easier.

PB blaster smells so bad. Cant stand it. I think Liquid Wrench is a better choice. Liquid Wrench Penetrating Oil

Explain.
Are you having trouble cracking the two bolts that hold the caliper in place, or after removing them, are you having trouble getting the assembly to come loose and come off?

Hey everyone! Thanks for your help! I actually managed to get them off using a wrench and a hammer. Just hammered the wrench. They were just rusted on really badly. I put on the brembo blanks, ebc greenstuff pads, and flushed all of the brake fluid. There is a noticeable change in braking (pedal not as mushy, no rumbling/shaking at high speeds).
