Wolf front tire removal

[Fran]

yes we got it out far enough to get a vise grip on it but still nothing. We lifted the tire while doing it also. There is something that is stopping it. When it stops it will still turn with a hex head wrench.

Do you have any pinch bolts in your forks? Maybe at the bottom of the fork?

Yes, just one and it is under the right side the side with the hex nut. The left side has a hole for a hex nut but there isn't one in it nor is there any threads for one

Gotta ask the question , did you remove it?
Can you take a picture of you wheel hub from the front? I would like to see the wheel spacer and the alignment with the hub.

Check this out this may be similar to your inverted forks.

first one is right side and second left side

the axle is out as far as it can go, it spins freely and on the left side the axle is completely out of the left fork

Looking at the last pic, the spacer looks cocked, and moving the wheel around doesn't help?

Put the rag and vise grip back on the axle and put a wooden paint stick against the chrome down tube and use a small flat pry bar between the paint stick and vise grip and see if you can't pry it out more that way

It looks like you hub has a cap over it between the spacers, I wonder if that needs to come off? May be something behind it is binding

Hey buddy, I just went out there and tried the vise grip again with a little hammer. I worked....It was a small fragment of steel that was mixed with the anti seze that was holding it in. Thank you my friends

Great, I would check your wheel bearing to find out why there was a metal fragment in there

 

[Fran]

I really do appreciate all of you taking the time to help a stranger, thanks again to all of you.

Might as well change the wheel bearings while you have it apart.

The blind her hole on the left side is for a Allen wrench to hold the axle while tightening the hexadecimal bolt on the opposite side. them tighten the pinch bolt.don't forget the blue loctite.
