Year 2000 JD 4200 Rear Wheel Lug Nut Torque?

[Mark from Maine]

Looking at my JD compact disk repair manual it states on a page numbered 9-3 specifications that the front and rear wheel mounting bolts torque is 72 lb-ft. I thought that sounded kinda light for the rear wheels and thought I would check with you folks. I am changing the rear tires after all these years and I can tell you that it took a lot more than 72 ft-lbs to remove the rear lug nuts. Had to use my impact wrench.
Appreciate your help. I googled the question and came up with nothing useful.

JD compact disk repair manual

Pls clarify what repair manual you mean. tks

Will assume you mean the 4200 compact utility tractor.. and it was a typo.

My 4200, 4300, 4400 operators manual says to tighten wheel bolt torque to 114 ft lbs

Yes, I am referring to my 4200 compact utility tractor.
My "repair manual" is the John Deere compact disc TM1677 06APR01 4200, 4300, 4400 Compact Utility Tractors

While we are on the subject, what is the correct torque for the front wheels?
Thank so much for the correct information!

Maybe can take your pick..

I have that same service tech manual on CD, and see where it lists the 72 lb-ft.

The operator manual gives the 114 lb-ft for wheel disc to axle flange as 114 lb-ft.
