You are on the right track with the torch and sledge hammer. The fact that the extensions are are all the way in just makes it more difficult. Recently changed one on a 1456 from 36" to 30" rows. Sprayed it with penetrating oil, heated it with a torch, beat on it with sledge hammer then let it cool and started again with the penetrating oil. Seemed like I did that dozens of times. Finally I made a bar that would fit in the exposed pin hole and was able to get it to move a little. About 3 hours and several cans of penetraing oil later I could get the extension to move. Since you don't a pin hole exposed this won't work for you. You could remove the spindle from the extension and find a piece of pipe about 8' long that would just fit in the hole. Then try to make the extension turn. If you can make it move at all it will eventually come loose. You will have to decide when it gets to the point that it just is not worth it.
