Default quickie - need some torque wrench settings please

Hi all

I need the torque setings (in lb/ft please) for:
  1. Cam belt tensioner nut
  2. Front sub frame to chassis rail bolts
  3. Rear sub frame to chassis legs (the long bolt 7-8" which goes through the bush)
  4. Front wheel bearing nuts
  5. Rear wheel bearing nuts
Thanks in advance
