SOURCE: Need to remove rear wheels to replace tires on MTD riding mower.

most likely rust has taken over
find some liquid wrench or pb blaster and spray the axles liberally and let it penetrate the axles and wheel hubs where the axle goes through.
use a 2x4 and a hammer to tap against the wheel hub to try to move it down the axle then tap in back on to try to free it up as the penetrating oil works in, spin the wheel and tap in different areas of it
the worst case cenario would be to use a torch and heat the axle and hub up and drive it off, but it sounds as though you are moving it some and with some patience they eventually should come off
when you put them back be sure to coat the axle with some grease and do not forget to reinstall the key stock in each wheel, if they have it
the bolt in the center of the axle is all you need to remove and note where the washers came from and where they go back.

hope this helps you some

SOURCE: how to remove and replace rear wheel tire on my

Part # 634-0020 is listed for the FRONT wheel. Your post asks about the rear wheel. I was unable to determine if the same part number fits the rear.

FRONT
1) Remove plastic hub cab with a screwdriver around the outer edge.

2) Loosen the shoulder bolt in the center of the wheel (My guess is that you will need a 3/4 inch socket).

3) Leave the bolt and all washers/bushings together and remove the entire wheel assembly as a unit (the bolt serves as the axle).

4) Note the component locations and install the new wheel exactly as the old came off. Do one side at a time to be sure the reassembly is in correct order.

Working from the bolt-head to the mount hole, the assembly should go as follows: Shoulder-Bolt, Wave-Washer, Wheel-Bushing, Wheel, Wheel Bushing, Bell-Cone Washer, Mounting-Hole.

REAR
1) Remove plastic hub cab with a screwdriver around the outer edge.

2) Straighten and remove 1/8 inch cotter pin from center of axle and slide ratchet-spur off the axle while making note of the tooth direction.

3) Slide the remainder of the wheel assembly off the axle.

4) Remove the small shoulder bolt from the ratchet-pawl and note the direction. Remove the ratchet-pawl and ratchet-plate from the wheel. On the inside of the wheel is a "pem-nut" which may need to be held with pliers.

5) Reassemble Ratchet-Plate, Pawl, Pem-Nut, Spur and Cotter Pin in the reverse order.

As was mentioned before, doing one at a time will help keep the parts in the proper order.

Hope this helps!

The wheel is kept in position just by the central bolt pressing the rim on the flange. If after removing the bolt the wheel doesn't slides out then it's been sealed in by dirt and rust - pound it out - use a big rubber mallet and a piece of wood.

What is the exact process for removing a flat tire on troy-bilt snowblower, model 8526?

Yes you need to prevent the wheel from turning. This the same process as removing the bolt from MTD mowers. You can also use a small impact wrench to remove the bolt. These are normal RH threaded bolts.

Be aware that after you remove the bolt you may still not be able remove tire assembly if it has rusted on to shaft.

How do remove the rim from a rear tiller?

There is a pin that runs through the hub and axle that holds the wheel on. Sometimes the wheel rusts onto the axle and wont come off... its better to just leave it on there. If you try and beat it off the axle you will run the risk of breaking internal parts on the axle and transmission.
Its a pain but the tire can be removed or a tube installed with the wheel on the unit.

How do u remove the tire off a rear rotiller

Remove the pin that secures the wheel to the axle and remove the wheel. Sometimes the wheel will become rusted to the axle and can not be removed. Its best to leave it be. Attempting to beat the wheel off the axle runs the risk of causing internal damage to the transmission.
Once the wheel is off, remove the valve and release the air then using your tire tools remove the tire.

Mtd removing rear wheels from axel

Be very carefull, if you pull the wheels hard enough the half shaft will pop the circlip on the inside of the gearbox and come away with the wheel, this will then require a gearbox strip down, leave it soaking in penetrating oil and try again.

Do you need a puller to remove tire off a yardman riding mower?

If you have successfully removed the wheel, You should be able to remove the tire, from the wheel, simply with a flat headed bar, or two.
Deflate the tire, then apply pressure, to break the bead.
Then insert the first bar to lever the tire over the edge.
Carefully repeat the process, and there you go.
Happy mowering:)

Can not get the back tire off

It probably is welded on - with rust.

Spray some WD-40, or something on the axle (on both sides of the wheel). If it still wont come off, you will probably need a puller.
*If your wheels have 2 holes in them, you can make a puller out of a piece of metal and a couple of bolts.
