No grease fittings on the inner bearing plates. OK, pull axles.
Step one, unstick bearings from axles. IMG_0210.jpg
Rear axles are splined and had grease fittings, so only need to do 4.
First problem. Bearing retainers are half installed right handed lock, other half are set left handed lock and no, not different left and right. Set screws were packed with anti seize, thank you Rod.
Second problem, no anti seize under bearings, Thank you Rod.
Get out the porta power and apply 4 tons. No budge. Get out slide hammer and wack it with 4 tons of pressure on it. No budge.
Never under estimate the power of liquid wrench. Spray them and let them sit over night. Couple of wacks and they move. (see pic of liquid wrench how it creeps under rust).
No grease on bearings, ever means no bearings. Order new bearings, and plates WITH grease fittings. IMG_0211.jpg IMG_0214.jpg
Now I see I have two different sizes of bolts holding sprockets to axles, both loose. Make some sprocket repair bungs. Notice while matching up repair bungs that sprockets look funny. See pic. order sprockets.
