Jared - You'll need to remove the entire front end assembly. Best way probably is to do it as a unit (radiator, bolster and front axle). First drain and disconnect the radiator hoses, disconnect the steering shaft at the U-joint, and disconnect the WFE stay rod bracket under the tractor. Then remove the bolts holding the upper bolster to the frame rails, and loosen (but don't remove) the other frame rail bolts. Finally use a suitable hoist or loader to slide the bolster/front axle assembly ahead and away from the tractor. BE CAREFUL HERE - the assembly is VERY top heavy!

Mine's a narrow front - however except for the front axle stay rod, bolster removal will be the same for your WF tractor. Good luck!
