Torque Specs for 2004 Ranger

I have been trying to find out what the Torque Specs for the Lug nuts on an alloy wheel would be? And for the Caliper Bolts? Any help would be great.

hey if you go or even call americas tire they will tell you your wheel torqe even if its after market. I worked for them a few years back and beleive its 75pounds thats what i do i also have alloys. as for the caliper bolts i would say 50 but im not sure i know that people would over tighten bolts all the time and they snap when you take them off dont forget to clean the treads water/rust deterant any stuck or non smooth threading and dry out before reappling the nuts or bolts!! good luckk

100 ft. lbs on the lugs, and 75 to 95 ft. lbs. on the caliper bolts-Threadlocker recommended for "used" caliper bolts..I have factory alloys on my '99.......

Thanks for the responses. I went with 90 on the lugs and 75 on the calipers. Had a guy do the front brakes cause it was too cold to do them outside. And the lower Caliper Bolt came out and the Top was finger Loose. Needless to say what happened....Yep, ripped the Wheel Apart, luckily I am ok could have been worse. He doesn't believe in Thread Lock. "I'm a professional, you don't need to use it" Yeah RIGHT!!!! Thanks for everyones input. Very much needed and appreciated....Hope I don't need anymore help....lol
