Success at last! After removing the axle from the tractor I put a 500,000BTU weed burner torch to it and put some firebricks around it to hold the heat in. That did the trick along with some more sledgehammering. I just hope the axle isn’t compromised because of the heat. The drop tubes where the spindles go didn’t get that hot and the paint didn’t even burn off there. The center never got red hot. Most of the heat was concentrated on where the tubes will still be doubled up even when extended so I’m hoping I will be OK. I don’t think it would ever had come apart without heating it up like that so didn’t have much choice anyway. Now just have to clean it up, paint it and reassemble. Tim
