I just recently bought an old spoked wheel hay rack that says Sears Ag. on the rear tag .I'm hoping to rebuild the bearings and front spindles however the front left turning spindle is rusted tight. The wheel bearing all roll OK. I've soaked it with pent. oil wrapped it with oily rags,let it set for 2 weeks,pried with a lever,and beat on it with a small sledge. Can't get it to break free. I know you guys can give me some good tips,so thanks in advance.I'll be away from my computer for a few weeks,if you need an exchange.

I had a wagon that was rusted tight like that on the spindles. What I did was take the tie rod off the free spindle or the one you are not working on and heat the tube the spindles run through, when you get it hot enough start pumping grease through the zerk and work the tongue back and forth. Keep heating and greasing until you have clean grease coming out.

I had a wagon like that. Had to use oxy-acetylene torch to heat it up and pound the spindle out. I have a Dion wagon that was so bad, I actually had to cut open the pipe the spindle went through and heat it to get everything apart, then had to cut off remains of pipe and weld a new one on the gear before reassembly. That was a job . . . .
