    That would be sweet. Unfortunately I did ravage it with a drill bit. I can send some pictures later after work and let you be the judge

            Seems shitty. You have a welder?
            because welding a nut onto that is gonna be the best way to get it out.

              Agreed.
              Good clean up, a couple of zaps to build up a little nub and un freeze the rust bond and it'll pop out.

              That said a reman caliper is cheap:
