Hi Matt,
The safest way to take the rear wheels of the axle is to use a modified pallet jack, or a fork-lift. You need a place to chain the casting on the rear wheel to the pallet jack. Usually a piece of iron secured to the jack in some manner. Then jack up the tractor and loosen the axle clamp until you can slide the wheel. Once it is loose you then slide the pallet jack under the tire and fasten your chain securely to the tire and jack. Then all you have to do is back the wheel off the axle.

Oh, ya... don't loose the key. It's Safe and Simple There are other ways of doing this, but they aren't safe or simple. Some might say that you don't need it for a tire like that, but believe me they are heavy, don't try to muscle it.

Good luck!
