Been there... not pretty... I soaked mine with PB for weeks, still no luck. I finally got a new axle, bearing, c clips, keys, new tires, and built a new axle. If there is even a little bit of rust, nothing slides off. I even painted the new axle with a light coat of paint to stop rust, nothing slid on or off ! It is such a tight tolerance, it has to be clean. I put grease inside everything I could when I put it back together, and plan to take the wheels on an off on a regular basis. Good news it the axle is 15$

I left the old axle outside for weeks, walked up to it one day, took a punch and hit it in the dimple in the axle, it finally came off after several whacks ! Heat from a torch may have worked, but don't have one, and bearing were shot as well, so started over.

You are now probably understanding why these are "projects".

btw - finally posted some predator throttle pictures in other thread.
