[QUOTE="brdgbldr, post: 128008, member: 7474"] They are not reverse thread. They are however high torque. I’m not sure of the torque for the 773 ( Not sure why they were left out in my “bobcat Loader Technical Service Guide”), but the torque for the 743 is 225-300 ft-lbs. (The 7753 is listed as “220-245 ft-lbs). What I have done in the past to loosen those bolts is I made a plate that bolts on the hub that has a 1-1/2“ nut welded to the center of it. I put a wrench on the axle sprocket nut inside the chain case and brace it against the case. Then I use a wrench and cheater bar on the nut on my hub plate and turn the entire axle. Of course this method does require that the machine be up on jack-stands and the motor hoses removed to allow the axles to turn. [/QUOTE]
