Torque specs for a brake job

Could someone provide me with the torque spec for 99TL calipers (front and back) ? Also what are the exact sizes of the bolts on them?

Thanks...

cant remember the sizes off hand (something like 14mm and 17 mm

Front Caliper Bracket Bolts = 108 N-m / 79.6 lbf-ft
Front Caliper Body Bolts = 49 N-m / 36 lbf-ft

Rear Caliper Braket Bolts = 55 N-m / 41 lbf-ft
Rear Caliper Body Bolts = 23 N-m / 17 lbf-ft

easy job, if you are just replacing the pads, just remove the lower calipin pin bolt and loosen the upper to swing the caliper upwards. as fsttyms1... use the 36lb/ft for fronts and 17lbs/ft for the rears. you might want to inspect and grease pins and bolts upon reassembly.
