front axle

I am looking for some help on a 1466 front axle I can't seem to get the arms off the spindles. I also see that there are some tapered spline spindles and arms available on different places. Is the taper enough to do much good and do they hold up better than the old straight ones.
I guess I will have to warm the arms up to get them off the spindles.
 
I use an aluminum bar that's an 1 1/2" diameter for stuff like that. That way if you have to beat on it, you won't wreck anything. We have the original steering arms on our 1066, 1086, and 1486, and we check the nuts on them every year before farming seaso, rarely ever have tonactually tighten them. The 826 has the OEM arms as well, but they seem to have been run loose before we got it, and need tightening more frequently. I worked on the steering of a friend's 1086 that had some sort of aftermarket steering arms, and you couldn't keep the stupid things tight for anything. Instead of the big nut on top, they had 2 horizontal bolts running through the cap into the steering arm, set up just like a connecting rod would be. What a horrible idea. If you want to use my aluminum bar, and happen to be south of Ithaca sometime, come on over.

R Boots I was going to try pushing with the boom on a Skytrac today with a wood block between them. I live south of you about an hour or just a bit more. Owosso.
I tried pulling them and the relief valve stopped it from going more. Pushing I can gain the shaft diameter for pushing. I slide my semi trailer sideways trying to move them that direction.
Thanks for the shaft offer. Might see about what my brother has in his toy box.
