Eric O, your tea leaves didn't fail you.
Most of the car insurance companies were discounting policies due to people not driving anywhere close to pre COOF times.
Now, they're cashing in on pent up demand for new cars and trucks, with higher than yester years insurance rates.
I was at my insurance agents office last week and he asked if I would be interested in rolling my vehicle policy to my home owners policy for a substantial discount? Well, I had recently renewed the vehicle policy with the lizard guys, but maybe next time. He did inform me to expect a homeowners rate increase due to increased prices, for building materials and labor.
As for torque specifications, rarely will you find a fine thread fastener used in aluminum part. Torque specs are based on the yield of the fastener with a given thread pitch, fastener grade (5 or 8 for SAE, and whether installed dry or lubricated.
I don't recall the metric fastener grades, as aerospace/aviation still uses SAE, including Airbus, except for rivets.

Hey Eric. Question. I live in the Lake Ontario/Tug Hill Region. When I do my brakes at home I clean off all the rust to bare metal and spray it with heat resistant auto paint (to try to seal the metal from the corrosion) and rebuild. Is that overkill in your opinion? My family thinks I'm over doing it. Need a professional opinion. Thanks.

Eric, can you comment on which caliper pin has the rubber bushing? Looks like it was the trailing pin, as the rotor spins the first pin to see a spot on the rotor is the caliper pin with no bushing. Is that always the proper configuration? A few Nissan car manuals I ve seen do not make it clear.

Brake bracket is ductile iron that melts at 2100F. Bolt is steel that melts at 2760F. The grease wins! Thorium with a melting point of 3180F wins over the grease.
