63 ft lbs I think, but a tad drunk so it's a guess

Snap on Tqfr250 or something like that

Don't get twist spring loaded pos torque wrench

deputy dog, don't go to randy's unless you have the caliper stud kit installed.

I have seen randy's ugly side come out when he has to change brake pads and the calipers don't have the stud kit, whoa.


And if he told you to get it and you didn't, dang....... I don't think they even make that much beer to make up for it.

Have fun boys
