bobfather Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I need to swap front pads and YouTube videos suggest the Allen bolts are 11mm. That's one I don't have in my kit. Before I order one I just wanted to check that size is correct. 2019 car though I think the calipers are the same as the earlier cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 That seems very large. All the Ford's I have ever changed brake pads on that use an Allen key, have all used a 7mm (also not in your kit, I bet). The one I have I bought in 1983 from my Ford dealer, it is twice the length of a standard Allen key which you need for a bit of extra force. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to do my own brakes so I do have a 7mm Allen socket. This could be a result of the Edge being predominantly an American car. US sites quote 7/16" which does relate to the UK saying 11mm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonb65 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 My 2016 Sport needed an 11mm Allen key for the guide pins (Front). Not changed the rears yet, so can't comment on that caliper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
