I remember those bolts being a lot tighter than45-50 foot lbs. What I have done of these type of spindles is to clean everything up real good I mean real clean. No grease at all. Then using a NEW key I put Loctite cylindrical retaining compound on the spindle/arm. Then tighten the bolt to what you think is tight. Leave it 24 hours to cure. That usually is the end of any issue with the key. IF you do need to take it apart all you need to do is heat the arm up and the Loctite will let go.
I have done the same thing on the IH wheel wedges that are prone to moving/walking. On my IH 1466 you could not keep the wheels form walking out. I cleaned them up and used the Loctite and they have not moved in 15 years. I have also used it on the front spindle on the tractor as well with good results.
The way I do it is to clean both parts up with brake clean. Then use Loctite #37509 cleaner /primer. Then used Loctite 609 retaining compound. Allow to fully cure.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
