I dont have a chiltons book yet and need to do the front brakes. When i bolt back on calipers what is the tork for the caliper bolts? The rotors i picked up look like they slide over a hub and studs. Is the rotor pressed on or does it ride along with the caliper. if not pressed but snug do i use a rubber mallet to get off old ones and put on new ones. Do i pull the whole hub all the way to spindle like a chevy blazer
thanks

Torque for the caliper bolts is 11 ft-lbs. At least that's what the factory manual says for my 2002. Here's a writeup on the procedure:
