Hammer, torch, and vice grips. Your going to have to heat up the caliper where the caliper pins are. Hit the caliper with hammer a few times where the pins are and with the vice grip, turn the caliper pin and work it way out. You may have to keep heating up the caliper till you work the pin out, good luck. This should work, i snapped the head off the pin on day being in a rush and had to take it the pins off this way. you can get the replacement pins at Auto Zone or any parts store.

they are called torque screws or some come with Alan screws at this point you could try using a pair of vice grips that would be my best recommendation unless you buy a set of torques and try a larger size and type it onto the screw.... I hope this helps
