Hello, I was trying to remove the top bolt of the back brake caliper (1/2") but when I turn the ratchet the bolt comes loose a little bit then it tightens back up. Same goes for the bottom bolt. What can I do to remove these bolts?
 
might be reverse threads.....go in the opposite way and see what happens
 
be careful.it sounds like the threads have been crossed.from a previous repair.tighten the bolt.put a little penatrating oil.not to much thst it goes all over.loosen a bit put more.go back and fourth a couple of times to let the oil soke in.that should help. good luck.
