Tim, With all due respect, I don't think you have the right tools. I used to have to change the spacing on my tractors about four times a year for different crops. A 3/4" breaker bar just isn't going to get it on those bolts. Do you know of anyone close that has a set of 1" sockets? Or better yet, the original wrench that came with the tractor? My tractors came new with a 18" iron wrench and a 4 1/2 foot cheater tube and I really had to yank on 'em to break them loose even with them not being "set up" like yours. Believe me, they are tight--very tight. Get a big wrench or breaker bar, then the longest cheater you can find; preferably about 6' long. They'll come. When you put 'er back together, you want them just as tight; probably 350 to 400 ftlbs. Just my view, Allan
