I have an IH-1066, and it had the same problems. When it was new, my Dad put the "centerless" bolt-on duals on it. They used long bolts that fastened the dual to the original rim. The torque and twisting was too much for the inside hub to take!!! It kept breaking the 4 bolts and wallowed out the hub. Eventually we had to put DMI hubs on the outside dual and replace the inside hubs, because they would NEVER stay tight!

Another thing that will force the axle to twist in the hub is running radials on all the rear tires. Those 4-bolt clamp style just will not hold up under a lot of stress and strain!

Check out the link {Steel Wheel Ranch} for a very good source for parts for your IH. I have done a LOT of business with Mike {he is the owner}, and he is VERY reasonably priced!
