Hi Guys,
Wanted to wait until the jury was in on my wedge lock repair.
Yanked that derned dual off, made sure the tractor was sitting with weight on the wheel and then started tightening the wedge. Taped on the end of the axle with a 2-pound hammer from time to time to get more slack out of it.
All total, got a good 3/8" of additional pull on the cinch bolt.
Put 'er all back together and just finished crawing across 500 acres of hard pulling. Still locked tight and hasn't moved a bit.
