Anyone know the torque spec for the 19 mm caliper retaining bolts on the rear brakes? Car is a '74 2.0 . Thanks.

also... don't the rear calipers have the locking tab... that prevents those bolts from loosening....

I never use a torque wrench on them
good and tight has always worked.
and then the lock tabs

@brant

Fronts have the lock tabs. I toss them and use wave washers like all other Porsche calipers use
Rears have the backing plate strap that goes between the caliper rear and trailing arm. If left out the caliper rubs.
