Brake caliper torque specs?

[imopxn]

Hello all,

This is my first time changing the rotors and brake pads on my 2010 Yaris sedan. How would I find the correct torque specs for each bolt on the caliper?

Calibrated elbow. Not too tight! Lol

I honestly dont know. I'm sure someone here does. I've always just estimated. Hasn't failed me yet!

According to the Haynes Manual, the spec for the guide pin bolt is 34 Nm (25 ft lbs) and the spec for the caliper mounting bracket bolts is 107 Nm (79 ft lbs).

I'd use some blue Loctite too.

Hmm good to know, I've always went with a couple ugga dugga's (SMA reference) on the 14mm caliper slide pin bolts and a few on th 17mm bracket bolts. Never had an issue in the track yet.

Yep, I am using these values as well. Works fine. No Loctite on threads. Waste of money (unless you have it for free).
