To all the experts,
As you can see in my pic, the drop leg broke off the tube. I,m having a hard time getting the tube out of the axle.
1)Is it just a slide fit and rusty, once the pin is removed, (which I have out), or is something else holding it in there?
2)If it is slide in, can I heat the axle tube with a torch or will it weaken it?
3)Can it be welded back together, or won,t that be strong enough and need to be replaced?
Thanks for any help.
