Replacing disk blades - any hints / short cuts

Posted by andy r on January 31, 2011 at 07:05:40 from (69.66.71.73):

I need to replace a couple of disk blades on a disk I just bought. Fortunately two are the first blades under the end nuts on both front gangs. The other is the outside blade on the back which means the nut must come off and the axle must completely come out. Do the axles generally slide out easily or are they rusted in? This is an International 37 disk. What things have you learned over the years that help you tear the gangs apart and then reassemble them? Lastly if you go to all of the work to dissassemble a gang do you automatically replace the bearings or just check them out for their condition and reuse? Thank you.
