Hi, working on Bobcat S220 , Water in chain case , All bearings bad. I have front bearings out. Have covers off. How can I turn axle to break rear spocket bolts loose? It's a single speed unit, but chains torque up against hyd motors and I can't turn axle enought to loosen the bolt. Am I going to have to hook up hoses and run motors to break bolts loose? Or will loosing Hyd lines allow the motors to turn. Thanks

Either way I just pulled the motors on my 743 but I pulled the chain case out put a wrench on it and tuged it with my truck

Disconnect the drive motor hoses. Put a wrench on the sprocket nut and let it jam against the case. Take a long pry bar and turn the hub to loosen the nut. Same goes for install.
