I am going to throw on some drilled/slotted rotors tomorrow and i need to know the torque specs from the caliper bolts.
TacoBill says 85lbs front and 76lbs rear, I would just like to know if anyone has this info handy and can either confirm or deny those figures?

Thanks in advance.

76 is confirmed for the rear caliper mount bolts. See above.

Don't confuse these big mount bolts ( called rear brake caliper anchor plate bolts in Ford-speak) with the caliper slider pin bolts!! Those caliper pin guide bolts only get 24 Lb-ft.

LOL ... when I saw those huge TQ numbers for the bolts I was like NO WAY!! But I was thinking about the Caliper Guide bolts ...
