I've never changed a bearing but have you checked the roller chain behind the tire? Is it stiff and kinky? That may be making your clicking noise.
Frank.

A bent axle will squeeze the bearing in against the housing and cause some weird noises also.................

Thank you. Its the middle wheels on the 6x4 so i would guess it would be pretty hard to bend the axle but with using it at a university anything is possible. Thanks again for your input. I will try anything at this point.

I thought the same thing until I saw the bent axle on the middle wheel on the passenger side of a 6x4 a couple of weeks ago. This one was on a horse farm, I have no idea how it got bent like that, nor does the owner.............

  John Deere Gator Bearing Noise 4x6

I know you were talking of bent arms, but we are trying to pull the bearings out of the front wheels of a '97 4x6. Can't seem to do it by tapping out w/ a punch from opposite side. There's an inner an out on both wheels. Ring pins/bearing locks have been removed. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get them out?

Did anyone figure out the clicking noise? I have a clicking coming from the rear right tire. I thought it was the chain drive but doesn't seem to be and nothing in the manual matches up- any ideas? Thanks
