Need size of allen wrench for front caliper bolts for 2006 escape

I am the manager of a Quick Lube and have a customer who I am changing the brakes pads. The rear caliper bolts I had no problems with, they were a size 7mm. Once I started on the front pads, the 7mm was to small and an 8mm was to big. I tried all standards too. Could you please tell me what size the front caliper bolts are supposed to be. Its a 2006 Escape 3.0 4X4. I would appreciate your help.

What size Allen wrench for 2001 escape front caliper?

i just changed my front rotors and pads on my 2001 escape, 6 cylinder. everyone was wrong on the wrench sizes, including the idiots at my local ford dealer. to get the brake calipers off I needed a 7mm hex bit. to get the caliper bracket off I needed an 18mm socket, it was a very easy job but check your wrench sizes first, it seems that every year and model uses different sizes.
