How do I remove 1 ton brake calipers?

Ok dumb question but most of my experience with these trucks is with 1/2 tons. I dont see any bolts holding the calipers on? What am I missing here?

There is a small hex bolt that holds the sliders on, take that out, and then with a hammer and punch, tap the sliders out...
