One more observation that may help: It looks like someone had either an open end or Crescent wrench on that bolt, it looks like the edges of two opposing sides on the head are galled. Has the owner had any work done on the vehicle recently?
Nice catch sure does look like someone cranked down on it.
They had the calipers replaced and front brake lines over a year ago.
OEM brake lines but not the calipers. And several years ago emergency brake which is the type that is in the drive train and that guy cleaned one rear brake and put it back on. Both done on the road at semi truck repair shops. Brakes seemed real hard to me.
Really would like to hang this up but that means they'd have to have it towed which would really be a crunch on their budget. And then they'd have to pay a tech $$ per hour to look, just like what I have already done. I'll give them another day or two of my time to try and help.
