John deere 4230 axle seal

i try what tx jim says
manuel says you have to remove wheel.

 

[amartha]

Do you have 5 bolts on the senter of you rim ? 2 Standing out (looks as if it is loose ? Then you have the rachet sisteme to use ! First looses the 3 bolts then screw in that 2 bolts to ******* the wedge then you can turn the bolt on the side to adjust the wheel in or out !

Twisted off one of the three bolts so I cut it out. Wedge will not budge.the bolt that turns out the wheel is frozen
Tight. Put as much force on the two jackoof bolts as I could plus a sledge hammer on the two screw that hold the wedge.I get nothing.

Try hitting end of axle with a big hammer as recommended by JD or make a pipe to slip on axle that is cut out so it only contacts the wedge that you're trying to loosen.

Remember to jack-up that wheel ....turn it until the wedge is under........ and remember to remove the c-clip at the end of the axle

My guess would be to have the wedge i want to remove on top or am i wrong?

 

[Tx Jim]

WRONG wedge that needs loosened needs to be on the bottom of axle.
