Make sure you don't make it too tight... I stretched my threads with the impact and the nut wouldn't come off when I went to change my tire. Had to cut the nut and buy a new axle...I was pissed.

That's why you use a torque wrench.
I just put it on "really tight" by hand ... it's easy to guesstimate 72 Lbs

Axle nut sockets are expensive and you do want to use a genuine axle nut socket made of hardened steel. A regular socket could split under that kind of torque.
