Torque spec help

Hi guys,

Could anyone help me with the following torque spec info for 1 '99 F-150, 4wd, supercab please:

1) aluminum wheel lug nuts (5 lug)

2) brake caliper to steering knuckle

3) any other specs related to doing front brake pad replacement

Thanks for anyone who can spare the info.

Take care,

Lou

If you have the 12mm lug nuts, the torque spec for the wheels is 100 FT LBS

14 mm lug nuts, which I believe started being used sometime around 2000 or 2001, the torque is 150 FT LBS

I only have the 2003 Workshop Manual, but the torque values should be the same for your brake parts.

Front disc brakes
Brake hose bolt 23-29 ft lbs
Disc brake caliper bolts 21-26 ft lbs
Disc brake caliper anchor plate bolts 136 ft lbs
Brake disc shield bolts 7-10 ft lbs

Rear disc brakes
Brake caliper bolts 20 ft lbs
Caliper flow bolt 23-29 ft lbs
Disc brake adapter bolts 80 ft lbs

After having used this forum for several years and getting very useful information, I am glad I was able to "pay it forward" a little bit.
