I’m going to change the brake rotors and pads on the vehicle listed above. I just need all of the caliper torque specs please. I used to have a Chilton account for my car manuals, but they discontinued that site. Thanks!

I’m a bit confused by the titles between front and back. Which ones are caliper bracket bolts, and which are the slide pin bolts?

I’m guessing “torque plate” is the bracket bolt since it’s the highest ft.lbs
