I used to move mine every year for a mounted corn picker. If you get lucky and the outside wedge comes loose first go ahead and turn the bolt all the way out of the inside wedge and turn the wheel so the wedge is on the bottom. Then take a large punch, I use an old axle one inch diameter and about three feet long, put it against the inside wedge careful not to damage the threads and hit it with a maul. Knock the wedge out move your wheel and reasemble. If you don't get lucky and the inside wedge comes loose first then you have to use the horseshoe thing. In my experience the outside wedge comes loose first 90 % of the time and I've never had an axle bearing go out from knocking the wedge out. If you move them there's a procedure in the owners manual for tightening them and its a good thing to follow it even then they work loose sometimes so check them a lot. Lee
