    Default torque settings

    I left my Haynes manual at work and need a torque setting please. I need the setting for the bolts that hold the two halves of the caliper together, not the mounting bolts. cheers

    So that's the carrier to hub bolts and the caliper to carrier bolts then?

    It must be from looking at them. If you've only removed the bolts needed to get the calipers and carriers off then that's all you would have removed - four bolts. Gimme a sec and I'll get the details for you. The carrier to hub is FFT, the caliper to carrier is not a great deal. One sec...

    Yep, just the same as painting. Just don't get it into the friction surfaces/rubber boot areas.
