I'm trying to get the rims off the hubs on my I-6 so I can get to the brakes to fix them and the pinion seals. Got all the bolts out (8 of them per wheel) and the clamps off, but the rim is stuck on the hub. This rim is not like on the farmalls that have the clamps on both sides. It has clamps only on the outside and there is a flange on the hub that the clamps push the rim against. I've tried a hydraulic jack between the tractor frame and the rim, no luck. I'm afraid to put too much pressure, as the axle bearing must take the load and I don't want to damage them. Next, tried a heavy piece of iron on the inside or rim and long bolts through the clamp holes to try to pull it off. Still no luck. Can't heat it, as tire is on rim. I guess the rust has the rim locked to the hub. I'm using PB blaster to try to soak it loose. Any ideas how to get this thing off. I've though of reinstalling the clamps loosely and driving around to see it that would break it loose. Other than that I'm pretty much out of options. Any ideas??
