Caliper bolt torque?
David Jenkins - 24/6/02 at 02:09 PM

Can anyone tell me the correct torque for the bolts that hold the calipers onto Cortina uprights?

I seem to have every Haynes manual except the Cortina one!

cheers,

David

tight..... dunno, but i used "snore washers" to, just to make double sure.

UncleFiesta,
Thanks! It's roughly what I expected.

Jon,
You haven't got Cortina calipers anyway! Willwoods, aren't they?

cheers,

David
