Default Torque Specs 2012 Caliper Bolts

I'm searching for torque specs and I'm finding some different numbers online, so I'd like to share what I think are the most reliable and hopefully someone can correct me if these are wrong.

I have a 2012 Suburban 1500, 4x4

Guide Pin Bolts / Brake Caliper Bolts
Front: 74 ft lbs
Rear: 28 ft lbs

Caliper Bracket Mounting Bolts:
Front: 148 ft lbs
Rear: 122 ft lbs

T30 on the Front Rotors: 106 inch lbs

Lug Nuts 140 ft lbs

Please correct me if any of these numbers seem wrong. Thank you!

keep cranking on the bolt until it suddenly becomes loose, and then back it off a quarter turn.
j/k ... don't do that.
