Brake hose to caliper bolt torque spec???
Need some help here. I can't seem to find it. What's the value for the brake hose to caliper bolt on rear aluminum (1LE) calipers?
Andy? TomP? Larry?
Thanks...
Ed

My VERY unscientific method goes as follows:
1. Tighten until it doesn't leak.
2. + 1/16th of a turn.
Seems to work so far.

Thanks again, Andy. I was getting ready to semi-install the front calipers and realized that I don't have the front "banjo" bolts yet!!! Eek!
Gotta run to the dealer anyway.
