4050 Hubs

Ben Hucks

I have a 87 model 2WD 4050. I am trying to move the hubs out to get a wider stance. The bugs are just about 2" from being all the way in and i would like to move them out about 5" on each side. The guys i bought it from ran duals on it some. The hubs are seized up by rust it seems. I loosened the 3 bolts on the inside and outside of the hubs, ran the push bolts as far in as i could and it didn't loosen them up at all. I used a few more rather shade tree techiques that required heat a huge hammer and a long piece of round bar and still nothing. Any suggestions on getting them loosened up so i can run them out i am open to.
