    Ok here is the update. I ordered the larger bolt extractor’s and in the end i hammered with a 2lb hammer the 7/8 on and with a long cheater pipe was able to get it broke loose. No water was in there so now im ready to replace the bearings.

    If I’m not mistaken those are metric hex not standard. That might be some of the issue.

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    If you have not removed it yet many times I used a pipe wrench to break them loose then my fingers easily removed them and tossed them out.

    A air hammer also will work .
