Brake Job Torque's

Have done lots of searching for the torque specs for my 2014 F250. The best I can find is generic, 42lbs for calipers and 165lbs for caliper bracket. I also found that some are saying that you need to use blue lock-tite on the bolts. Can anyone tell me if this correct.

Front Caliper is

F-250, F-350, tighten to 75 Nm (55 lb-ft).

Front Caliper bracket is

F-250, F-350, tighten the new bolts to 225 Nm (166 lb-ft).

Workshop manual does not call for Lock-Tite.

And don't forget to clean/lubricate the sliders.

The caliper bracket bolts did indeed have blue loctite on them. Will put some back on when I install the bracket.

There was some either anti-seize or grease between the rotor and hub. Anyone know which it may be?

Ford's Workshop DVD doesn't not state using any Lock-Tite in their repair procedures. Maybe the reason is the procedure shows the bolts are to be replaced.

I would use a good anti-seize with nickel in it. Permatex makes one.

Yup same here, I always use anti-sieze on bolts that are subjected to high heat like brakes and exhaust, haven't lost one yet.
