fitting new brakes

[ksithumper]

Fitting some new front discs and pads to the 'ro this w/e.

Anyone got torque specs for caliper bolts etc?

Any tips/ anything weird to watch out for?

Thanx

Yeah spray the inside of the disk where it meets the hub they cease on nicely.

Also remember a hammer and block of wood to smash fk out of the disk to get it off, just work around the circumference.It does come eventually.

Thanks Ringram, already polishing my 4lb lump hammer in glorious anticipation.

Given the state of my discs, I dont think I even need the block of wood!

Can anyone advise on bolt torques?

I know Pontiac GTO have smaller brakes but can't see them being that different

Not tried to remove my disks, but after 46K I have checked they are all still "loose" on the bolts. So big hammering not necessarily required.

Thanks all.
