Torque Specs

[GaryG]

I have a 2002 Alero, and the GM Shop manual has contradictory torque specs for the front brake caliper bracket bolts. In one area it specifies a torque of 85 ft/lbs., in another part of the book, it specifies 133 ft/lbs, which is correct?

Thanks,

Gary

According to my Haynes manual, the caliper bracket bolts should be torqued to 85 ft/lbs. :)

133 seems way to high, 85 seems alot closer. but all i do is tighten them really hard, i never use a torque wrench, maybe i should.
