My son has a 79 F250 Dana 60 with disc brakes. We are doing a High Boy front spring swap and removed the two large bolts from the caliper as I didn't realize the calipers were 2 pieces(from what I've read this is the older design, newer is 1 piece), this accomplished our goal as we needed some extra droop of the axle to make the spring swap easier. Now we are looking for the torque spec for these two bolts, Haynes manual does not list it and I can't find anyone showing this number. We used a torque wrench on the other side set at 30 ft pounds and it clicked, lowered it to 20 and also clicked to try and get an idea of the spec. Now the bolts were pretty easy to remove so could they actually be that low?
Any help is appreciated.

 

That big of a bolt will be a lot higher than that. I can't remember what size bolt it was @ 1/2 can't remember. You can always use a bolt torque chart if you can't find a listed torque. My boss on the farm just used to tell me TIGHT. One time he told me tight as I can get it. I snapped a 3/4 inch lug bolt off in a tractor hub. He never told me that again.
