Have a 1998, D5M that has a sporadic clickinging when turning the dozer. It does not occur all the time and it is not something felt but just heard. Very light clicking sound.

Much depends on the trailer. A low-loader with a low centre section is commonly used to move large loads but in the case of a dozer or other track laying vehicle these are driven on to the bed from the side and then turned. Duplicating that manoeuvre using winches or other vehicles for pulling and pushing could be a dangerous and lengthy process without assurance of success.
The safe and sensible solution would be to hire a mobile crane to lift the beast into place or use a couple of gantry cranes to lift it and then push the trailer under it. Getting the dozer running where it is would be the best solution...
A rear-loading trailer would solve the problem as the dozer could be pushed and winched onto it in a straight line.
If I was faced with your problem; needing to get a dozer onto a trailer with a low centre bed, I would dig a pit so the rear end of the trailer was below ground level and then using heavy timbers and props make a roadway so the dozer could be pushed and/or winched onto the bed from the rear. Using something like a 360 and an expert operator the pit could be dug quickly and have a slope the towing truck could manage...
possible wheel bearing at fault. if it heard/felt more when turning or swerving and is a growling type noise, more than likley is. possible bad tire shouldnt be over looked. is abs light on? most often when wheel bearing is bad a speed sensor ( within wheel bearing ) will go open, setting abs light. vehicle needs to be ran on a hoist to try and duplicate noise/vibration.
The only thing I can think of is if you have plastic inserts built into the drum then maybe you installed the wrong kit in the dryer. Their are basically 2 styles of GE dryers. Those that have a steel drum and a bearing with glides on the front panel and those that have felt on the front panel and the plastic glides mounted in the drum itself.
>wheels rubbing on inside of wheel arch
>steering linkage hitting something
Try putting the car on a lift/ if you can, and get someone to steer it full lock to full lock both sides whilst you observe the steering mechanism, then you might be able to see what's happening.
You will need to get the Tranny Shift Kit Inspected for Shifting Ball Slippage. Should not be a Big Repair unless it messed up the Clutches inside the Tranny.
When the lights flashed the system was telling u a fault has occured in the transfer case engagement actuator, most likely the motor or the mechanism it operates stuck, have you ever serviced the transfer case? I would do so, that will most likely cure the problem.
