I usually hit it with an impact gun on the low setting if that means anything to you. The bolts are strudy and the lock washers keep things in place. So my elbow tells me 50 to 60 ft-lbs ... off the top of my head ..or elbow.

The driveshaft does not connect to the rear rotor. The only fasteners on the rear rotor are little Phillips head screws. If you just want to get the rotor off, remove the caliper, those Phillips screws, and then pop the rotor loose. You can thread a bolt into the threaded hole on the front of the rotor where the wheel fits against it to pop the rotor loose. They are usually stuck on the car.

If you mean the big nut under the cover in the center of the rear wheel, the torque for that is 174-231 ft-lbs.

I figured he ment the 4 bolts that mount the driveshaft to the rear end. Only think the driveshaft commonly bolts to.
