2 Rotor bolts Torque spec - front axle

Hey guys, I'm replacing my rotors and there are a couple of 14mm bolts on the inside of the disc that hold the disc to the hub. Does anyone know what the torque specs are for those 2 bolts on the inside of the disc rotor on the front axle???

I've looked in the FSM and the Haynes manual, and neither one mentions the torque value. I'm not sure if it's because these 2 bolts are unnecessary or they just forgot...

The torque value is as follows:













That's tight enough.

34 ft. lbs...............If it's the 2 bolts I am thinking of. The 2 bolts that hold the disk on and that you come at from the inside. That make any sense ??

Yep, those are the ones John...

I tightened mine to 90 N-m.

Lehiguy, "That's tight enough" always turns into "Hmm, maybe I should tighten just a tiny bit more..." and then bolts strip and bolt heads start flying off, helicoil needs to be used, bolt extraction needs to happen etc...

If I was only smart enough to know when 'tight enough' was tight enough, I wouldn't have this problem...
