I had a bolt fail on a rear caliper. The arrow shows how it failed just at the face of the hub. The result was that the caliper jammed the inside of my wheel. It actually caused a tear in the alloy wheel and caused a blow out. If that had happened at speed, I would have lost control.
To make a long story short don't be a cheap sod like me. Use new bolts to attach the brackets to the hub and to attach the caliper to the bracket. It could save your life!
