I want to replace the brakes on my 1999 Winnebago Chieftain.
However, I do not know what the required tourque should be on the 2 each 15/16 bolts that hold the calpier on.

Does someone know what it should be?

Thank you.

Winston2112, It is difficult to give you an answer however in researching calipers of that time era 70-80 ft/lbs appears to be indicated on Bosch brake calipers. What kind of chassis do you have?
