thanks for the comments back.. absolutely the instructions don't state anything.. the should include a new proper nut, if that is what is required for the 100 in-lbs to work.
Did ppl use a small enough torque wrench? If your in the bottom 20 % of the range, the tw's can be off by quite a bit.
In the airplane world, we specify running torque. The mechanic must determine the initial torque for the lock nut, then add that to get the total torque. There is a mil-spec for new and min-reuse for locking nuts. Nylon ones are limited to exposure <225 F.
I didn't realize you could buy them reasonably for a box. I did splurge and get the bevel locking washers and heim ball joints for the cub.
A big public THANKS to Matt for answering my questions.
