Tried your suggestion on Wednesday, ARGOJIM ... no dice! Got belt off, got driven clutch off ... came off real easy ... guess someone used anti-seize. Jacked it up. Took off one idler chain. Ran out of daylight ... came home. Yesterday, Thursday, was stormy ...didn't go out. Went back this afternoon ... after going to NAPA this morning to pick up some Hex head sockets for my 1/2 drive torque wrench and bought two: 5/16 and 3/8. Tried to jack it up farther so I could move the track on the left side to get the other idler chain in position to remove it. Jack broke ... spring!!! The middle of the track was sitting on frozen ground ... so had to try to beat that away with shovel and pry bar (too lazy to walk back to the pickup to get the truck jack). Finally did beat it out of there ... and then it moved like silk ... could move it with a couple of fingers even while I was standing there looking at the idler chain. Got the chain off. Those damn little cotter pins!!! Took off the caliper ... It was the 5/16 hex head socket that was needed. Caught the washers with a magnet on an extendible arm. Slipped my little block of wood between the pads. 1"x2"x 1/4 ". Took the nut off the brake disk(rotor). Disk slipped off real easy! Guess someone had used anti-seize compound again. No pry bars or pullers needed! Had to raise the back end of the power pack so that it would clear the bottom sprocket, though. Was running out of daylight by then, so packed up and came home. A good half days work! Very cold working, though. Fingers just about froze! -11 or -12 degrees Celsius! Will see if I can upload a photo of the brake disk later ... Sprocket worn down to nubs!
Next time I go back, I have to remove the other caliper and brake disk. Then I'll be ready to reassemble everything. Will keep you posted.
