Is there any information on Torque Specs for mounting Wheel cylinder to backing plate and on the Master cylinder to frame? | | |

If you have been turning wrenches very long you develop a feel for it. Make sure you have good lock washers & replace any fasteners that are corroded or damaged. If you are concerned you can put a little lock tight on them.

I guess the feel torque will have to do
I was hoping there was something listed out there somewhere for a 1959 chevy 1/2 ton truck
I looked thru shop manuel and assembly manuel only to find engine torque specs. | | |
