Does any one know the correct torque value for the brake caliper bolts on a 2500 HD. I assume the front and back will be the same. I remember some where I read they need to be lubed once in a while.

A packet of silicone lube usually comes with new pads.Edited by: GMCSID Tinbender 11-15-2003, 02:17 PM I think there is a misprint in the bleed screw torque. Should be lb in? BobEdited by: Tinbender Blue Max 11-15-2003, 02:39 PM Thanks for the info, Mike- GMCSID 11-15-2003, 02:44 PM I think there is a misprint in the bleed screww torque. Should be lb in? Bob I thought that sounded wrong so I looked up the specs for 00, 01, 03 and 04 and none of them have the spec for the bleed screw, only the 02. I would disregard that spec and use your own judgement. EDIT:You are right, I changed it to LB IN.Edited by: GMCSID | ||
