specs

I will look now. You might want to get one of those service manuals off of ebay that come from ford. That is what I am about to look on(only bad thing is mine is a '06. So I can give you the '06 specs.

2 brake caliper bolts and position the caliper aside.
Support the caliper using mechanic's wire.
To install (F-250, F-350 single rear wheel caliper), tighten to 35 Nm (26 lb-ft).
To install (F-350 dual rear wheel caliper), tighten to 76 Nm (56 lb-ft).
To install (F-450, F-550 dual rear wheel caliper), tighten to 62 Nm (46 lb-ft).
I am still looking.....I think the 200lb-ft sounds like a bit much but hope some of this helps.
