Question TORQUE SPECS

G'day Fellas,

Just done a full brake fluid flush and change.
Also pulled the Calipers and cleaned out the Slide Pins and Re-lubed them all. I also replaced the brake pads, .

I had the Torque Specs for the Main Caliper bolts at 166Lb/Ft and the slide Pin Bolts at 42lb/Ft.
That seems to me, to be the Specs for the Front Discs only (I think ).

I say that because the Rear Calipers are much smaller than the front set and therefore have smaller bolts.
Being smaller, I presume they would not be torqued the same as the larger bolts on the front ??

Anyone know the proper torque specs for the 'REAR' Caliper holding bolts and the 'SLIDE PIN' bolts??

Cheers,
Reg.
