Hi!

2001 ES3000

Could anyone help me out with these specs?

I need to know the torque specs for the torque member (caliper bracket) bolts and for caliper bolts, both front and rear.

Also, the order for bleeding the brakes?

TIA

The torque specs for the caliper bolts are 25 ft-lbs. However, this information is gathered from the LS400 tutorial site (http://www.lexls.com/tutorials/brake/fbcaliper.html). The brake work process should be universal amongst all Lexus vehicle models.

You can also find out about brake bleeding from the link I provided above

The caliper bolts are 25ft-lbs front, 14ft-lbs rear - not much.
Torque member is 79ft-lbs front, 34ft-lbs rear.

The master cylinder sends it to the ABS solenoids / distribution unit which splits it into 4 individual lines for the calipers. That's the long way to tell you the order you bleed them doesn't matter.
