Bearing replacement on Port Agri Fertiliser Spreader

    Looking for advice to replace bearings on Port Agri Fertiliser Spreader. All bolts rusted and won’t move. The spindle bolt (see photo) will not move either. Will get neighbour to heat to see if that will work, if not will have to cut bolts, however they are hard to get at!

    Also how do I get bearings out of the spindle/carrier unit if I get it off.

    My son got the bearings carrier out, but how do we pull the pulley off and the two bearings which are shot. There is one Allen screw in each bearing shaft, but looks rusted, left the bearings and shaft soaked in WD 40 overnight. See photos.
