How to remove the front wheel on my B.F. Avery

Jackson5 · Oct 5, 2012

My B.F. Avery has a forked housing single front wheel. What is the secret to removing the bolt or pin that holds the wheel on the fork. I need to remove the wheel so I can replace the tire.

Post some closeup pictures of that front wheel. Hal

It's been years now but I had that same problem. Seems I remember hacksawing the axle shaft, it's just mild steel. Bought a new bolt of the correct diameter (pretty big-sized bolt) and had a machine shop thread one end after cutting it to length. I remember working on that axle forever trying to get it out of the cast hub and finally resorted to the hack saw.

Hold one side of the bolt, and loosen the other side. They are normal right hand threads. Jack up front end of tractor and just drive the axel out with a brass drift, or something that won"t damage it. They normally don"t drive too hard unless they have been damaged or are rusted.
