Stuck Bogie/Idler Wheel spindles on 1977 Tucker 1442

Hello all from a newbie and would like to start out by thanking all of you for all of the posts and wonderful information and pictures on this forum, it has helped me a ton to date. The 1442 that I purchased came out of the Northeast and even though it was fairly well maintained they did miss quite a few areas. I plan on doing a full restoration on it (basically replace every nut and bolt) and bring it back to like new condition. I currently have the front tracks off if it as it needed new sprockets and a few of the idler wheels need new bearings. I know I read in one of the posts but have been unable to find it again how you all have removed stuck spindles. Most all of the wear parts on the carriers are super rusted and I have had to "massage" a few pieces out, but the spindles are in the same condition, and I cannot get them out and do not want to tear them up as they appear to be in good shape. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. And I plan on posting some picture here soon. Thanks in advance.
