I had one of the 4 bolts break off that holds on the rear subframe. I replaced it, but can find the torque spec anywhere. Can you please tell me the torque spec for the rear subframe bolts?

Those 4 bolts are torqued to 125 ft lb. If you only replaced the single bolt you would be done, if you replaced all 4 then you will need to get an alignment as the subframe can move quite a bit.
