BX25 Rear Wheel Fell Off!

I ask dumb questions all the time. Those answers that are less than civil don’t bother me as I consider the source. Too bad Mohammed doesn’t block those folks.

He has the 'Thread Pruner' Moss Road for that task.

I have owned three Kubotas over the past 20-30 years. I have never torqued a wheel

You are extremely lucky. I check mine regularly with a torque wrench but then I'm doing ag related work with my tractors including maximum capacity front end loader tasks.

Does the other side look like this?

Please tell me this isn't what I think it is

I've never seen a taper facing out so it caught my attention and the other two tractors had the lugs installed as to what I would expect. I don't know if those are washers or a flat face on the nut. The second picture definitely looks like a washer though.

Mine are all torqued to 90 pounds with blue thread locker.

The people on this thread sound like an old nagging wife.

Husband: My wheel fell off. You think anything else got damaged?
Wife: Why didn't you check the lug nuts before using the tractor? What's wrong with you? Do you neglect all maintenance or just this? Is it your first day using a tractor? Why are you stupid? I should have married Bob.
