Get yourself a bigger hammer. :welcome: :D





























Oh you had to have been expecting that. Seriously, use a big hammer, torch, and penetrating oil. Heat, Spray, Hit…. Repeat. I would thread the nut partially back on (backwards for castle nuts) then hold a piece of hardwood between the hammer and nut/axle to protect them After destroying several scrap pine 2x4 pieces I now have a piece of oak just for beating on things.

Pull the forks out of the tree's and take it to a shop with a press. 30 seconds done.
