I got a 1979 CJ5 I am slowly fixing all the screwups from the previous owner. and the front brakes are one of them. I went to replace the front wheel bearings and found the brakes to be missing peices and decided I might as well put on new rotors and pads while I am at it. I see says with 6 bolt or with then 2 bolt what are they talking about the caliper has no bolts excpt one allen bolt the isn't really in the caliper can anybody tell me what I am looking for.
 
6-bolt is the number of bolts for the caliper mount. 6 bolts are the spindle studs.
