Rear wheel axle block seized
 

I got some after market axle blocks and I can?t get the original axle block off, it is galled to the axle. I?ve soaked in kroil and tried using a torch to heat it up and nothing. Anybody have ideas? Also is the threaded axle block side (opposite from axle nut) reverse threaded ?

You could cut it down the side and split it off. Like using a nut splitter. Do you have the new blocks? Check the inside thread, should be able to tell if it is lh thread.

Put some more heat to it and melt some candle wax into it, the shit works wonders :D

On my bike the axle blocks do not thread into the swingarm, the adjuster nut rests against the swingarm. so it will just be dirt holding it in place, ONCE YOU HAVE CONFIRMED THIS IS THE CASE FOR ALL MODELS you could just tap it out from the wheel side

I believe he is referring to the block that is attached to the axle itself, on the drive side. Likely hard to remove as the block is aluminum and the axle is steel/stainless. Steel and aluminum threaded attachments tend to gall due to the different material properties.

On my bike both blocks are loose, or do you mean that it has attached itself to the block, in which case you could cut it off since you already have replacements.

Thanks for the tips I?ll try the wax and if it doesn?t work just cut it off with a dremel
