    7610 Rear axle squeak

    My 7610 has developed a squeak whit each revolution of the rear wheel. It started in the fall and I put a breaker bar on the cinch nut and tightened it. It didn't take long for the squak to return. (I think having the rear chains on may have something to do with it) I called the dealer...
