hilokamper Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Will be replacing all Rotors & Pads (Powerstop Z23 K5452) this week. What are the correct Torque Specifications for a Gen 1.5 (My Edge is a 2011) ? I've found various Specifications stated and without a bench manual, I need verification. This is What I Have found that seems to be correct. FRONT BRAKES:. Brake caliper anchor plate bolts 98 LB-FT Brake caliper guide pin bolts 65 LB-FT REAR BRAKES: Brake caliper anchor plate bolts 66 LB-FT Brake caliper guide pin bolts 19 LB-FT Thanks for your help.

hilokamper Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Front General Specifications Item Specification Brake disc minimum thickness 26 mm (1.023 in) Brake pad maximum taper wear (in any direction) 3.0 mm (0.118 in) Brake pad minimum thickness 3.0 mm (0.118 in) Torque Specifications Description Nm lb-ft lb-in Bleeder screw 8 — 71 Brake caliper anchor plate bolts 133 98 — Brake caliper flow bolt 25 18 — Brake caliper guide pin bolts 88 65 — Brake flexible hose bracket bolt 20 — 177 Brake tube fitting 17 — 150 Rear General Specifications Item Specification Brake Disc Minimum brake disc thickness 10.007 mm (0.394 in) Brake Pad Maximum brake pad taper wear (in any direction) 3.0 mm (0.118 in) Minimum brake pad thickness 3.0 mm (0.118 in) Torque Specifications Description Nm lb-ft lb-in Bleeder screw 10 — 89 Brake caliper anchor plate bolts 103 76 — Brake caliper bolts 33 24 — Brake disc screws 20 — 177 Brake disc shield bolts 15 — 133 Brake flexible hose at caliper 25 18 — Brake tube fitting 17 — 150 Brake noise damper 14 — 124 The Front torque specifications match What i have found from various sources. It's the rear torque Specifications for the Brake caliper anchor plate bolts & Brake caliper guide pin bolts that I have encountered differences with. Your numbers I have not seen before. Please advise where you received this information. I have researched and seen the Caliper Anchor bolts as low as 49 ft Lbs and as high as 98 ft Lbs. I look at this as falling off or breaking off. I just want to do it right the first time. This is the first vehicle since 1978 that I have not purchased a Factory bench manual specific to year and Model. Thanks for your help.

hilokamper Posted April 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 Ford factory service manual (FSM) Thank you. This is the verification I needed, I'm going with the Specifications you posted. Hope others can benefit from your information as there have been previous post that do not match the specifications you posted for the rears. Your FSM specifications are more in alight to changes from Gen 1.0 to 1.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hilokamper Posted April 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 Thanks WWWPerfA_ZN0W for the information. Replaced all 4 corners. This is the first Vehicle I can remember that had different size fasteners for caliper brackets & Caliper Slide bolts. Hugh difference between the front & rears on the Edge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
