removal isn't hard if you go at it right.
Remove the four bolts and nuts from the spindle
Thread the holes from the rear with (I believe) a 7/16" tap
Make a square steel plate 1/2", slightly larger than the spindle bolt pattern.
Drill four holes aligned with the ones you just threaded.
Drill a 5/8" hole centered on the plate
Weld a 9/16" nut to the hole
thread a 9/16 bolt through the plate and then the nut.
bolt the plate to the rear of the bogie
heat the bogie using a wide pattern torch. Have a beer or coffee while it heats
Use an impact wrench on the centered bolt to drive the spindle out of the bogie.
