Default Caliper Mounting Bracket Bolt Torque Spec?

I just started the brake and rotor job and realized that I don't have the the torque spec for the caliper mounting bracket bolts. I need to remove the bracket to replace the rotors. Many thanks if anyone can provide the spec for the front and rear caliper bracket mounting bolt torque spec.

Thank you,

-Johnny

Thanks.

I jsu tfinished the job though. For the caliper mounting bracket bolt I just ratched until it is tight and then gave some extra push.

The rest I had the spec.

Thanks to everyone here I got it done. The toughest part of the job is rust, rust, and more rust in parts.
