Gary: A surprising number of 856, 1256 and 1456 came from the factory with wedge lock wheels. In this area I'd say 65% of 856 and 100% of 1456 have wedge locks. Not sure on 1256, I only know of one and it has wedge lock. Wedge locks are just another one of those changes that didn't happen right at model change.

I think this may be a geographic thing, dealer here tells me they had a lot of problems using snap on duals on early 56 and 06 tractors. Thinking about that one, it doesn't surprise me. Personally I spent the extra money for axle duals, even with wedge locks. The 1066 manual told one not to use 3 lowest gears for maximum pull with duals, that did tell me someting.
