It's usually more than a standard torque wrench will handle! Unless u are a master mechanic or know of one to loan you a 3/4" drive torque wrench! sorry but good luck! Should be around 125 foot pounds to 150 foot pounds! Car's vary so I could be wrong.
Remove the wheel, Remove the brake calipers, simply grab and pull the rotor off. Install new rotor, then push the piston back into the caliper a little ways, or all the way if installing new pads. This can be done using the old brake pad and a c-clamp to push the piston down. Install new pads and install the caliper. Install the wheel and torque to atleast 80 foot pounds. I torque mine to 100. Torque is important so as not to warp the new rotor.
cylinder head and main bearing bolts had a first step torque of 50 to 60 foot-pounds and a second step torque of 80 to 90 foot-pounds each. The rod bearing bolts had a first step torque of 25 to 30 foot-pounds and a second step torque of 30 to 36 foot-pounds. The intake manifold and exhaust had a first step torque of 5 to 7 foot-pounds. The intake manifold had a second step torque of 14 to 21 foot-pounds while the exhaust manifold had a second step torque of 16 to 23 foot-pounds.

Hub bolts are around 65-70 foot pounds, axle nut is about 120-130 ft pounds. These are not super-critical. Many at shops are installed using air guns and work just fine. Your main objective is to not have them come loose. If axle nut has a cotter pin, never back off on nut to install. always tighten to get holes for pin aligned.
