Help please with my Chevy

Ok you guys seem what you are talking about. Well im trying to do a whole front suspension job on my 1994 Cavelie (the "r" fell out a long time ago). The problem is i can't get the caliper bolts out. Any suggestion as to how to remove these stubborn guys. (Afraid of breaking them as this is my only mode of transportation). I replaced the pads before but i think the guy that was teaching me how to do it over did it with the tightening. Thanks in advance.

firs make sure you are trying to turn it the correct way. i believe the bolt is on the other side so turn it to the right to loosen it.
second, take your hand and make it into a fist. then holding the rachet in one hand, take your fist and pound it into the rachet handle. dont be afraid it will come loose.

thxs..i'll give it a try

What about spraying them with a little wd-40 or something??? Just be careful that you dont spray the pads or the rotor. If you do then wipe it all off very well.

brake cleaner will take take of the extra wd-40

If you can get the car high enough off the ground, and dont feel like breaking your hand by hitting, put a pipe on the end of your ratchet, or a 3 ft breaker bar. you might have to come from undereath if doing this on a cavalier can work, ive never done it before on them.
