hey everyone here are all the torque specs! Wheel lug nuts-----------------------------------------------------80ft-lbs Caliper mounting bracket to steering knuckle------83ft-lbs caliper bolts to caliper mounting bracket-------------36ft-lbs Think twice! Good luck!
It's OK to loosen the brake cap? I work at a quick lube shop and they tell u not to mess with it as it can mess up the brakes. I'm guessing that's because of the pressure. Which loosening the brake cap would allow the excess pressure out. I'm just not a trained mechanic and I don't wanna mess up my only car because Im unsure of something. I'd rather ask.
Kaven Holloway if you are not confident enough to do the brakes yourself, call your local Firestone. I looked it up, and you guys have one there. They do brakes, if you don’t like Firestone, then go to Midas. I believe they’re all ASE certified as well as Firestone’s mechanics. They are very thorough, but I would recommend learning to work on cars yourself as you will save yourself a fortune down the road. Plus if you learn you can choose what parts you want to use, instead of a mechanic installed cheap crap parts. I rebuilt my 2005 Ford Escape with Mevotech TTX, Precision, Mevotech Supreme, Brakenetic, KYB, and Powerstop parts; They’re the best parts they make for my car period. I know OEM is recommended, but companies can improve on design over the years. Another thing is that their warranty is longer than OEM, so that’s saying something. I hope that this helps, and this is food for thought!
"For these bolts here I like to properly torque down these bolts, just a habit of mine.... And when you do your car make sure you look up the proper torque specifications. You can either go online or look in a vehicle manual and it will tell you exactly the uh proper torque of your vehicle, and it's a good thing to make sure that all the bolts are properly even, so the pressure the spaced out amongst the metal evenly." Then proceeds to not tell the torque spec... Anyone know what the torque specs are?!
One of the best/well explained DIY's on the internet.

Thank you, been looking everywhere for this!
well done, should have mentioned what torque settings you used, as well as how to bleed the brake lines for proper usage.

Is there a mechanic near Apple Valley, Minnesota that is this thorough to do brakes?
