07 Lacrosse/Allure Caliper bolt torque
Hello....would anyone know the caliper pin bolt torque for an 07 Lacrosse/Allure?
It should be around 25 to 30, but an exact number would be nice. Thank you.

Re: 07 Lacrosse/Allure Caliper bolt torque
Excellent!!!!!!!! Thank you.
Funny..my Lucerne is 27 lb/ft, but now after completing the job on the Lacrosse, I can see that the pins are different on the two cars. Thank again and for the fast reply. Job done. Last edited by polarzak; 08-21-2011 at 03:25 PM. Reason: Additional thanks.

Sure.....Why not? If you are going to do something (anything) may as well do it right. I think I would feel safer with my work, than yours. And lastly...."What's it to you, anyway?"  :

Re: 07 Lacrosse/Allure Caliper bolt torque
I agree....if you are working on this for the first time.....take your time, and do it right.....
But if you went into a 100 different shops doing brake work, you'd be hard pressed to find someone that takes out a torque wrench, or takes the time to look up specs......after you've done so many, it's all in the "feel"..... As for safe, I can say I never had a come back on a brake job....but have fixed a lot of other "jobs"......maybe it was because they didn't use a torque wrench?

Re: 07 Lacrosse/Allure Caliper bolt torque
Definitely not my first brake job...been doing them since cars had drums on the FRONT.
I used to tighten most things by feel also, however over the years breaking a few bolts or putting them so tight they were near impossible to remove, I find the torque wrench makes things easier. Perhaps if I was working in a shop, I wouldn't use a torque wrench either, and perhaps that is why I do all my own work, because I know it will get done right.
