IFS Rotor Torque Specs

I'm in the middle of my brake job, putting on my new rotors, and I go to look for torque specs...
..and just realized the FSM I have is for a SFA.
Anyway, I need the torque specs for the 6 bolts inside the rotors if anybody knows them.
Thanks for the help, I'm putting on new rotors because my old ones were warped and would love for that not to happen again

the torque spec is PFT (Pretty F@#$%n Tight). As long as there is no crap on the mounting surface and they are all tightened the same, I wouldn't worry about the spec or warpage. Try like 70 lbs, that sounds good to me.

Torque to what the FSM says, don't just guess at it. They set torque specs for a reason.

Your brakes are an important safety feature for you & the other people on the road.

you will find that they can warp due to having the lug nuts overtightened, especially if you run alloys. paint some anti-seize on the mating surfaces to facilitate easier removal for next wheel rotation.
