DRW Brake Rotor Question
Putting new rotors on my 2002 Ford Dually & was wondering if anyone knows what the ratchet/nut torque rating is & is the factory brake fluid DOT 3-4 or is it the silicone based DOT 5?

Good call. I wasn't sure which one he was talking about when I read it.
So, to cover all the bases:
Rotor to hub bolts: 66-68 lb/ft.
Hub nut:
Torque to 70 lb/ft.
Back off 90 degrees.
Retorque to 18 lb/ft.
Install dial indicator and verify hub has zero end play.
Check that rotating torque of hub does not exceed 20 lb-in.
