Everyone has posted good ideas. I just moved mine in. Went from 40" row spacing to 38".

I jacked up til the tire just cleared the ground, loosened everything up, and stood at the end of the axle with a hand stretched out to each side of the tire and rocked it. This works, but it ain't easy.

One tip I will suggest - figure out how far you are going to slide in, and mark this distance on the axle from in side the wheel. Then, cut you a piece of wood that you can tape to axle (with one end up against the axle housing). This will stop you when you get it where you want it. Moving the wheel back out, after you have pushed it too far in, can be a b1tch!

Be careful!
