Anyone know the torque specs for the brake caliper bolts for an '05 F-250?

I want to say 36 ft/lb...this is for the caliper pins right? I know the caliper bracket mounting bolts have close too, or more, than 100 ft/lb on them..

Fuck...i get home at around 1:00 PM CST, I can look it up for the exact specs if ya can wait.

Thanks for the reply. I could use the specs on both pins and mounting. My main concern is the mounted bolts, had one come loose on me once.

I usually tighten until it starts to get loose then back off a 1/4 turn.

Great info, thanks! I think it's time to invest in a service manual but couldn't find one in time for this project.

LOL Think we've all been there and done that. :D

At 150 ft/lbs on the caliper mounting bolts I don't think I have a long enough torque wrench to strip them.

Goobs of locktite on these.
