Hey guys the title says it all. Im redoing my brakes and cants seem to find a torque specification for the front flexible hoses to the front disk brake calipers. They have crush washers in them and dont know how tight they need to be. A quarter turn passed stripping is what Im afraid Ill end up with if I dont get at least a idea of how tight they should be. Any ideas?
