Was yours an old style krypton or halogen bulb or the new-in-2012 LED. The Maglight comments got me thinking about when they started changing over to LEDs.

I did the same thing... The Maglight was resting on one of the pullys and when I discovered it a few days later, it had a nice shiny ring on it. Still works!

On the prairies plugging in a block heater on cold nights was about the only way to get a car started in the morning. We occasionally saw cars driving down the street dragging an extension cable behind them. And doing that could result in damage to the block heater's electrical connections.About 5 years ago I was using my 2 foot Mag Lite flash lite working on my Ram. Forgot I left it in the engine bay and went for a rip up the road. Popped the hood when I got back and remembered I left it in the engine bay -- GONE!!!! Spun around and retracked my ride -- nowhere to be found.
Someone replaced the bolts. I just did one of those a few months ago and they are definitely 10mm.Grabbing a standard socket to work on an import LOL. Duh. the only time I’ve ever used standard on an import was doing an oil pan gasket on the USA made 2002-2006 model Camrys they have oil pan bolts that take a 3/8 socket instead of 10mm.
Interesting. Mine has 3/8 heads on them as well. And the one I did that time did too maybe it’s a replacement set they make for them that’s commonSomeone replaced the bolts. I just did one of those a few months ago and they are definitely 10mm.
Good to go! You had 3 fully function braking wheels as back up. Redundancy is a product of the space program.Changed the rear brake pads on my old Ls400...
Next day on my way home from work I was having some odd vibes and high pitched screeching when the wheel was turned to the left.
Take the wheel off and the caliper was only attached with one bolt and it was not even finger tight. Must have forgotten to torque them and One fell out.
Inside of rim had a shiny ring where caliper had been rubbing flying down the road...
