Finally found a fix for the wheels that stick to the rear hub on a dual wheel Ford truck..I've used neverseize [ copper and silver base ] ,grease , heat , big friggin' hammer , spud bar....I drilled the wheels for jacking screws.. Each wheel has a 7/16" hole in them now , I drill another across from the factory hole and tap them 1/2-20 fine thread...works excellent....I did this last year on one of the pooches...Had to remove wheels for a brake job..Got out my grade 8 fine threaded bolts , impact wrench and voila...Wheels came off easily.At the Ford dealer , one of their " Techs" spent a whole day taking off wheels...Another way to break the rims loose is to loosen the lug nuts a few threads , and drive the truck around the parking lot " like you stole it"..

Had the same problem with my 88F350 when i got it as it was a refugee from the old patch and did not have the best of maintance . every U/joint was out of it every wheel seal was out all seals in the drive line leaked and it ran like dog dooo and the paint would blow off the body at anything over 50 MPH , but i got such a deal . I cheated getting the duals off the first time i used a porta power and a rosebud and a BMFH . Then the die grinder with a flaper wheel and neverseeze . Never seeze is even good on toast.

"Never seeze is even good on toast."

I gotta remember that one !!! (I am a firm believer in never-seize) I use it on everything, guess I will try it on toast.. :^)
