Tom... you would be surprised what an impact gun will do... even with a loose shaft. quick bursts with the trigger on a good 1/2" impact gun will do amazing things. Even if you can put the slightest load on the shaft, maybe with a prybar or something, it should come off without much trouble.. Jim also is correct with a nut splitter, although I personally haven't had great luck with them, it is an option.

If everything spins, can you tell if the threaded insert that is normally spot welded to the base has broken free...?

Jim,
The threaded inserts are not there at all.
These are Westinghouse WD-5, WD-10, WD-12, WD-20 cooler casters mounted on there.
I haven't verified yet, but they look to be 3/8-16.
I bought some PB Blaster today.
I have to get the compressor out, clean the threads with a Dremel first.
Maybe tomorrow, but it is looking pretty full.
I hadn't thought of a nut splitter. Can they be utilized in corner areas like mine?

Bubba,
I bet I would, but I currently don't own one.
My tool buying is on hold until the home expansion is done and I get a shop.
Then there are quite a few tools I can think of that I need.

Tom,
I'd just cut the nut loose with a dremal and small chisel. Cutting wheel from two sides and break loose with the chisel. Nut splitters are great but doubt one would work here.

It might come to that Crieghton!
The compressor compartment is pretty clean though.
I am going to give PB Blaster a try first since the nuts and bolts are not that rusty.

There has to be some reason to justify buying an impact gun while working on a house... '<img'>

J/K... I thought you had one... '<img'>

Another good penetrant is plain old motor oil... that stuff is pretty amazing on rusty bolts...

Well - I got one off clean and the other three had to be removed ala the Creighton / Dremel method.
I have them all soaking in Muriatic acid right now.
I then should be able to remove the axel bolts easily.
Thanks everybody for all your input and suggestions.

Bubba,
Once this addition is done to the house, then a lot of tools are going to be had.
Air Compressor
Impact gun
I would like to get a metal lathe, but not sure if I'll have the room.
yada...yada...yada...etc.

This is what the wheels look like after a rough clean and lube.
I think they will refinsh nicely when the time comes.
I still need to redo the 1/2 x 16 threads.

On the two wheels that were loose,
the threads are pretty much gone where it rubbed against the cabinet.
I think I can clean them up far enough down to get a good grip though.
I'll put a thick washer in if I have to.
