Alright,
I just tried the double nut deal. Had to go out and get some narrower wrenches to reach in there.

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

the outer nut was torn a new a-hole! It was pushed off the post!
I was being gentle and easy and all that. i even tried pulling out some other ones to see how hard it should feel (and to get better access). That thing is stuck!
Gotta drop it for the moment - more suggestions please.
(no access to a welder)
(don't like acid around - have a kid in the house)
I've tapped it alot over the last month.

Just did it. It's aluminum, but thanks for thinking outside the box.

time is on my side with this one so any and all suggestions are welcome. The rest of the bike is still getting love in many ways - degreasing and cleaning mostly. Found some sweet nests behind the front sprocket.
I just stuck the front wheel back on and spun the bike 180 to get a different angle and perspective on it.

get forceful, take a 2lb mallot and a punch or socket extention and really wack the collar a bit, try to get it to move some. You can always get a new collar if you mess this one up.

I whacked it like crazy with a long brass 'punch' with a hole in it. Here's what it looked like in there.

Way to go. Isn't it great when whacking the everlivingshiite out of something actually fixes it?

now get some kerosene and toothbrushes and clean the hell out of that motor. Use the kerosene to cut and break down the grime, then spray it with some super purple to remove the kerosene and hose off.
