Rear rotors
I went though this before, and I can't find my notes.
The 96 FSM says 166 ft-lbs for the rear rotor caliper bolts. I busted the bolts listening to the FSM once before.
Does anybody know the correct torque spec for the rear caliper bolts that hold the rotor in position.
I think the eariler service manuals were correct, and in 96 they used the front spec for the rear....

My '88 front caliper bolts only call for 137 lb-ft and the upper rear caliper pin bolt takes 26 lb-ft, the lower bolt takes 16 lb-ft and the caliper bracket bolt takes 70 lb-ft.
