Hi I am new here. I have a B7800HST with 900 hours. The front axle pivot began squeaking/squawking very loudly. I decided to rebuild the pivot point replacing the busing and seals. I got the axle case removed from the tractor, got the front, axle bracket removed, but can't get the rear axle bracket off the boss on the axle case. These are the two brackets that hold the axle case on the tractor and the point where the front axle pivots.

Is there anything that holds the rear bracket on the axle case or do I just need to use more force to remove? Any ideas on how to remove? I am guessing this is where my problem is. Likely the bushing has failed and maybe contributing to the problem of not being able to separate from the axle case.

Thanks
