Rear brake rotor
Why in the heck did Dodge use Torx head bolts on the rear hub. I let the rear pads get down to metal and ruined the rotor. Tried to replace it yesterday but I don't have an inverted Torx socket that will fit. Looked all afternoon at various parts stores, Lowes, Home Depot, and Sears. No luck. I'm not really even sure what size I need. Does anyone on here know??? Going to try Harbor Freight today. If that doesn't work, I guess I'll take it by the dealer tomorrow and get them to split it. Either that or chase down a tool truck.

This si what you need. An impact screwdriver set. Set it for reverse, hold it on there good and slug it with a big hammer. Put some antiseize on the bolt and use the same thing to tighten it. it will zip it right off.
