Default Help Please: Caliper Torque Specs

I've searched, but haven't found the answer to my question.

Can someone give me the torque specs on for the front caliper bolts (new pads) and caliper bracket bolts (new rotors) for a 2010?

Thanks and I appreciate your time.

Do you tow a lot?

I have 51k and last time I rotated the tires my pads still look good. I do have some warped rotors though. :/

Not really, must be too many hard stops.

Kind of weird, both inboard pads were gone. The outboards still had some meat left. Tried to have rotors turned, but they had too many hot spots. Trashed.

Inboards always wear faster, on our fords anyway.

My coworker has a 2wd f250 from 1999 with 113k miles on it, still factory brakes on it. Even tows his old travel trailer 4-5 times a year too! I have had factory brakes last a long time, but these went quick. I have had to stop quick before but not even on a weekly basis. Pretty normal like most people.
