Banjo bolt torque specs
What is the torque spec for the banjo bolt when using aluminum calipers? Is it the same as the stock cast iron or less? I know that aluminum is a much softer material so I'm concerned about over torqueing the bolts on my SSBC Force 10's

The spec is only 12 ft-lbs on aluminum PBRs. Did you go with the Force 10 2-piston replacement calipers? Curious..

Yes sir, the twin pistons. I had read 12 somewhere but wasn't sure. Seems so low. They brakes seem to grab really good but I want to bed the pads before some really hard testing...
E-mailed SSBC Tech also to be sure. It doesn't give banjo torque in the installation instructions.
