Super A wheel noise

Got a noticable "clicking" sound on the right wheel of my 1953 Super A about every evolution, only when going ahead. Someone told me to just tighten the wheel-to-axle bolts. Is there anything else I should do to resolve this? Also, if I can not tighten the bolts what would be the next step. Any suggestions on how to safely jackup the wheel? I have 2-ton jack and jackstands. Also, I am looking for bushhog mower within 50 miles of St Johnsbury, VT. I have a single blade bottom cultivator plow, or sicklebar I would trade for the bushhog. Thanks to all.

There are 3 sets of bolts to check to make sure that they are tight.

First the bolts that bolt the rim to the wheel. Second the bolts that bolt the wheel to the axle. Third are the bolts that bolt the weights to the wheel if you have weights. Usually you will find some of these are loose causing your noise.

GOOD LUCK

Thanks to all fo rthe suggestions. I don't see any obvious cracks or breaks. Any ideas besides just tightening the bolts? should I dig deeper?

My A had a noise on the right side that turned out to be the brake drum loose on the shaft. It was more of a tinkling noise than a clicking, though.

Good luck,
Bill

Bill, Did you tighten the four square head bolts that attach the rim to the wheel? That is what loostens up on my tractors and starts to make a clicking noise. Hope this helps.

The rivets holding the castings to the rims can loosen or break, or the rim sometimes cracks around the rivets.
