I am unable to remove the bolts holding the brake caliper mounts. I have tried applying liquid wrench and a penetrating oil to the bolts but they will not loosen. I am afraid to apply to force to the bolds. How can I remove the bolts holding the brake caliper mount?

Thank you.....Problem solved. Just needed a lot more force.

I feel your fear, do not be afraid my friend! Apply the needed torque with whatever method available, I have several long pieces of pipe just for amplifying torque in my toolbox. The bolts will come loose, trust me, just dont hurt yourself, use some leverage and call if you need anything else.
