Im kinda stuck right now cause I didnt have a 19mm wrench and I went at it expecting a 22 8P
Bummer. Yes, the rear bolts are smaller. I should have specified that I was only doing the rebuild on the front calipers at the time. Sorry the the PITA it must have caused.

Nahhh, its alright. But it was a slowdown - I had everything apart and ready to go up on the jacks, and the first one I started w/ was the rear calipers . Was like, "what the hell, he said 22! I'll find him and kill him! I'LL WEAR HIS SKIN LIKE A CLOAK!" True story btw, I said all those things.
