I was looking at two different threads, CNN front brake and a response from Fredrick on a rear hub change.

Are there different torque specs for the caliper bolts on the front and rear?

Cnn lists 101 ft lbs for the calipers vs 65 ft lbs on the rear hub thread.

Thanks in advance.

Front brakes are normally larger than the rear brakes, and they carry more of the braking force.

In the 05 service manual, for the front brakes
caliper to caliper pins - 37 lbf-ft
caliper bracket to knuckle - 101 lbf-ft

for the rear brakes
caliper to caliper pins - 16 lbf-ft
caliper bracket to knuckle - 65 lbf-ft
