Diamond drive help

[slaggster]

Struggling to get the diamond drive off for a track swap. I've done this about 5 times and have not had such trouble getting it off. I have the bolt from inside the brake out. Have all outer bolts off of diamond drive just can't get it to move.

Put the center bolt back in for 4 or 5 turns, leave the socket and extension on and hit it with a good heavy hammer. Make sure your track is real loose.

Just hit it with small sledge still not coming off. Do any torx head screws need to come out.

Skid is already off also

K with some serious hits with the hammer it was just rusted in.
Thanks

Be sure to coat the shaft spines with a anti seize when you put it back in.
