HOT DOG! I found a technique that worked quite well. My tendonitis wasn't about to let me pound on those bolts and nuts for very long. I started with a 6 ton hydraulic jack and set it between the bolt/nut head and the side of the drawbar. After breaking the jack (20 years old) I got a 12 ton jack. I would have used a 20 but there is only about 9 1/2 inches of clearance. I pushed out the wheel weight about 1/4 inch then rotate the tire and push out the next one. After I had the weight out 1/4 inch all the way around, I removed the nuts and pushed each bolt/wheel weight about another 1/2 inch. On the third revolution, I pushed the end of the bolts to the hub. I then was able to pull the weight off. You might have to set your jack so the plunger is hanging down low so it will get oil to jack.
