Brake pad securing pin torque

[Rich1150]

Hello all

Does anyone know the required torque for the front pad securing pin ? I know it is held in by a cir-clip but I cannot find a torque setting for it in the Haynes manual.
It is the bolt shown in the centre of the caliper in the attached picture.

Thanks
Rich

There looks to be no torque setting on the factory RSD, so nipped up without breaking it should do.

It a retaining pin. Not carrying any load. Nip it up and pop the clip on.

I deliberately omitted the novice entry level settings of ‘Snapitoff’ and the devastating ‘Fukditup’ as the task at hand in the OP’s question was beyond novice level. These settings are always accompanied by a kerching cash register sound and a glassy eyed parts salesman smile.

No no no that’s 6.

5 is “till it strips then half a turn back”

My apologies sir, after that mega effort getting that bolt out.

Surely 5 should be, 'Stop just before it shears'
