I have a set of 4 row John Deere no till planters that need new openers. This weekend while checking out a flea market in another state, I bought a stack of new openers for $8 dollars. My question is how do I remove the old openers ?

Never had the JD unit planter, but have had 494 and three 7000s over the last 34 years. I think all had the same opener setup: Pop off the cap with a chisel, there is a nut underneath- left hand thread on the left side, right hand thread on the right opener. Picture it this way- direction of rotation= tightening while in the field. Opposite rotation to remove. 8300 grain drill has hollow head hex bolts, but I think all the planters had bolts and nuts. Clean the grease out under the cap to make sure. I remember a change in caps- some were more protected when hitting rocks. Maybe some kind of recess?
