Gents, I'm currently restoring a 6 pdr anti tank gun, I want to ask if anyone has ever split the trailing arms before and removed from the axle assembly?, there is a flanged nut, item 32 in the attachéd picture, held in place by 3 locking grub screws, has anyone removed this before?, mine will rotate only about half an inch then it's stuck fast, I could apply lots of heat but wanted to ask first.
Thanks in advance Kevin.

Hi Kevin, I'm up to that part also. Have been procrastinating for a month or more. I would assume that it may need plenty of penetrating oil as its a pretty fine thread ( from memory ) let me know how sucessfull you are.

When you need the penetrating oil look up "Ed's Red" basically 50% acetone and 50% ATF

Thanks to Rob and Marc on here I've removed the flanged nut with a block of metal welded to it for purchase. I really need to get a manual?, anyone got one ?.
Kevin.
