Folks I got an old disc harrow (believed to be a ford harrow) that I'm in process of doing some disc replacements and minor repairs to. Issue is can't get the axle nut to budge. I've read a few comments/posts on the subject and most say get torch/and heat to either loosen nut or simply cut it off if necessary. I've posted on this harrow before, its a pull behind 3pt hitch harrow with 4 disc per arm on front and 5 discs per arm on rear. It's been a long time since this thing has seen repairs and already ended up snapping off the U bolts on the one arm trying to get assembly off. Got a farmer friend I'll be seeing next week for help but are there any tricks of the trade on how to get the axle nut/ locking plate to off without damaging axle?
