Hello,

I am getting ready to swap pads and rotors on my 2006 STS (JE5).Does anyone have the torque specs for the calipers, wheels, etc.

Gracias~

Not sure what you mean for torque for calipers ?
When doing a brake job, you just open them "ALL" the way to
accept the "NEW" pads.
The wheel nuts should be torqued to 100 Ft/lbs.
and a pattern similar to head or intake manifold sequence.
If you number them in a circle, 1,2,3,4,5.
You would tighten them 1,3,5,2,and 4 etc.
Have Fun.

The lower brake caliper pin bolt (JE5) should be torqued to 25 lb fl. (and thread locker should be used, per service manual)

He ain't asking for the lug nut torque specs. He asked for the caliper torque specs. You know, the 2 bolts that hold the caliper! How do you not understand him? You must not know what your doing. And you probably just Googled the specs for the lug nuts right now

Welcome to CF !!!

The person to whom you replied has not logged in since 2009 (13 years) and is not a CF member any more. I doubt he'll reply.

The OP did ask for wheel (lug nut) torque and the caliper pins and bracket torques are vehicle-specific and brake package specific. GM service manuals.
