TD,
Sounds like some of the hunting adventures I have had. Sorry to hear about what happened. How did the bolt on the brake caliper break? I have never heard of such a thing happening and if it is a manufacturing defect you can bet I would be all over Ford about it. I did have the rods on my Taurus' calipers freeze/rust tight. These are the rods that slide into the hardware that holds the calipers to the car. Essentially, the caliper bolts screw into these rods. It was a chore getting them out and replacing them and I am still hearing a little squeking back there that I will probably check out in the spring.
Hope you get the chance to get back out and get at those ducks.
