...pull the nuts, o-ring caps and zerk fittings(NO the zerks did not come standard), off and shoot a good amount of WD-40 in there! It helps a lot to free up movement to slid the shafts out. When you 'wrench' on both nuts at each end, to loosen them, only ONE (the less-frozen one) will come loose, unless the shaft is frozen solid and will NOT turn in it's bores; if so you can get both nuts off. If NOT, Use the tight/frozen nut to turn and free up the shaft after soaking the inside with the WD-40 as best as you can, perhaps even 'overnight'...
