John Deere 6620 auger under straw walkers

This is a John Deere 6620 sidehill. I had noticed a slight "thump, thump, thump" from the rear end. I took the left wooden block off of one of the five auger shafts under the straw walkers and found that the hollow tubular shaft was only half there. So, when the tubular shaft turns it is sort of dropping up and down in the wood block. I think the wood block was sort of worn and allowed the hollow shaft to be cut on the sheet metal that holds the wooden bearings. So, I have some questions. Does the pan that the augers sit in hinge up front drop down in the rear? I really doubt that it does. Can the augers be pulled out without taking the rear hood or other side sheets off??? If it ends up being a time consuming project I am just going to put a tight fitting shaft into the auger tube, weld it, and make a new wooden block with a hole the size of the new inserted shaft. Any ideas on the proper removal and repair are appreciated. Thank you.
 
I have have always taken the rear hood off to replace the shoe augers. Never tried it any other way.
 
Remove the back panel, the auger trough will drop down "hinged" if you remove the back bolts. Remove the rear wood block bearing, the drive gear and bearing from the front under the feeder house and screw the auger one way and then the other through the slotted hole at the rear.
 
Just remove the panel above the straw chopper on the rear hood. With a cordless impact it takes me less than ten minutes by myself. Then I do not drop the auger pan either just remove the drive gear and bearing on the front. Then just reach up under the straw walkers and take the bolts out of the rear wooden block. Screw the auger out and then tip it down an out the lower panel hole you took off.

I just changed two of mine and I did them both after lunch an did evening chores at 5 PM.
