 Topic: Moving in rear tires on a 200
Posted: 03 Aug 2017 at 11:12am |
|
I just bought a ac200 and the rear tires are set on 36in rows and I need to go to 30in. It seems like I have done everything possible to get these centers to break loose from the axles. I am up for all suggestions and maybe a eaiser way.

Are you using the correct "special bolts"? If not, you are fighting a loosing battle.
If you are using hte correct bolts, make darn sure the threads are really clean, and lubricated, and by really clean, I use a special flat bottom tap to clean them up.
I have done a few of these any you would be surprised just how much dirty rusty threads will stop the bolts and make you think you are about to break them off, and you aren't even pushing on the hub much. Clean clean clean, use grease on the threads and the bottom of the holes, and it will pop those wedges off like butter, even the rusted ones.

What kind of bolts are they. Yes I'm seem to going about this all wrong. The bolts that hold the triangle piece on the axles will those work.

remove original bolts, clean holes,thread the pusher bolts in. expensive and hard to find, borrow or make some.

Still available new from Agco, while they aren't cheap, the amount of cussing and labor saved will likely be worth the money.

Along with the correct jack bolts, a torch with a rosebud aimed at the center of the cast wheel helps a bunch. Most times it doesn't take much heat. Just did this exact same task on my 200 this past April.
