Torque settings

I am planning to replace my brakes & rotors over the weekend. I looked at a few videos on youtube and I am pretty confident I can do this on my own. However, I am not sure about any of the torque settings. What torque should I tighten the lug nuts at? What torque should I use for slide/caliper pins?

When I changed my brakes I didn't torque them to a specific amount, but at the same time they aren't moving. As for the lug nuts you want to make sure you don't over torque them because this can warp the rotors (i.e. impact gun). I'm sure there are some factory torque specs somewhere. To answer your question I'd say anywhere from 40-60ft lbs shoud be good
