I was hoping to get some torque specs for the caliper bolts?

Hey Whitey it's Whitey. Torque for caliper anchor bolts are 148 ft lbs. The smaller caliper bolts torque to 47 ft lbs. YES use Locktite, blue or yellow NOT red, on caliper anchor bolts that torque to 148 ft lbs.

Good luck!

I have a Clymer's manual for a 2006 F150 I no longer own back in the deep dark recesses of a closet. I dug around for it last night but was unable to locate it.
But it looks like you managed just fine without me.

Hey Whitey, the best part is that you can have Whitey do the brake job and Whitey can sit back and watch football!

(It might be nice if Whitey brings Whitey a beer or something though...)

Thanks for replies. I ended up replacing both front calipers and the master cylinder, and did a fluid change. Works GREAT!

Thanks again!
