Removing hubs

[popnascar3]

Trying to pull cast hubs off a 60. Doesn’t appear they have ever been off. Have tried lots of penetrating fluid, removed inner and outer bolts, hit axel end with sledge a a few times and so far can’t get wedges released. Any secrets ???? The two bolts that jack the wedges are not free at all. Afraid to put breaker bar on them.
Haven’t tried heat nor a bigger sledge!!!

Has to be john Deere if you’re saying 60. From what I remember u screw the bolts in the hub and it pushes the outside hub off. Then the actual wheel hub can be seized on the splines. Don’t pound on the actual splined part of the hub as u will break it. U need an impact time and lube. Clean all jacking threads too.

I'm gonna start fighting a pair on a 3020, and going to try and remove the pinion bolt to see if it helps. Usually I can get the wheels to move while driving around, but have had everything loose for over a year.
