You might be running with bearings too loose. Jack up the axle and see if you can feel any play in the wheels. The cotter key can also push off buddy bearings if they can touch the inside of the buddy bearing. The hub end where the buddy bearing fits may be worn. you can install set screws to hold the buddy bearing on tightly.
