torque specs for brake job?

I was looking for the torque specs for the front caliper bracket and the guide pins for a 2011 Escape limited. Brake and rotor job already.
Thanks

This is one of the very few places I don't use a torque wrench. Just get 'em tight so they don't back out. If you want, get them tight and even with the torque wrench but I can not honestly give you numbers to go by.

Should be the same as an '09, from the Ford manual: 37 lb-ft for guide pin bolts and 129 lb-ft for the brake caliper anchor plate.
