Brake Job Torque Specs

Does anyone have the torque values for the brake components handy? I have a brake job to do tomorrow.

Thanks in advance.

You failed to specify which vehicle you have. It matters. DRW specs are very different from SRW. 4x2 versus 4x4 are different.

F-250/F-350 SRW
Brake Caliper: 55 lb.ft (front and rear)

On other vehicles I've done brakes on there is a slider pin and a torque setting for that. Maybe my reading comprehension is low, but I can't find that in the Ford service manual.

No problem and it’s been some time since I’ve even posted.

I originally order digital manual/CD from:
https://www.helminc.com/

Then just used screen capture to post.

Looks like price went up $50 . Inflation I guess… has been worth the price though as I’ve used for many different projects. I use to get some good stuff off the Ford upfitters site as well, but Ford has ruined that site.

Cheers

The site is still there just much harder to find what you want. They use to have them listed out by year and was easy to find. Takes way more time unless you know the bulletin number:
https://www.fordpro.com/en-us/upfit/publications/

lucky I safes most everything I needed i.e. high idle fuse guide etc.

And agree, finding correct tech information seems to be harder and harder, the manual cost is a little steep, but if you plan on keeping truck for long time it’s a cheap investment; though can be tough to find the right information as well the way they have laid out.
