Brake Job Question--Where does this washer go?
I working on my front brakes on my LS. In the midst of moving around the caliper, the washer below fell out. The washer looks like is has some wear on it, but I can't figure where it goes. Please advise. Thanks

Easy way to check too, if it's a copper washer it's for the bango bolt where the fluid line attatch's to the caliper, ther should be two copper washers, one each side of the line/hose connection. Hard to tell from your pic if it is copper? Otherwise as stated probably for caliper bolt BUT they usually don't have washers for the caliper bolts...

Question: These bolts were stuck in there pretty good and it took me awhile working with the breaker bar to get them out. It is advisable to put some anti seize on the threads when putting them back?

Thanks PD. I went ahead and put some anti-seize on them. The bolts on the driver's side proved to be in there pretty tight.
