Farmall 560 clicking wheel

[jackson63]

I have a 1964 560 gas tractor. I get a clicking noise from the left rear wheel. I tightened up the bolts on the wedge and the bolts that hold the wheel to the cast center section. I still have the noise. Any thoughts?

jack the tractor and remove the nuts and oil the threads then put back together again

As said,adress the bolts. Use an impact if possible. If the clicking persists,you may have an axle bearing failure. My 1256 did that last year.

Bolts bottoming out on rust in threads instead of tightening as intended? Clean lubricate and reinstall.

As stated it sounds like the bolts attaching the wheel to the axle. I've had the same issue in the past. I would take the weight off the wheel and remove the bolts and clean and perhaps add a washer if you think they may be bottoming out and when tightening them use a impact or a breaker bar with an extension as they are big bolts.

Does it have wheel weights? They can get noisy, too.

Clean threads, and moly based anti-seize. I do one at a time to keep things where they are. Jim

It could be the Driving block that's riveted on the rim,and the corresponding opening on the cast wheel, the rivit head is a little to high, need grinding down a little! That's got spoke wheel's and not spin out rim's right !!!!
