Okay, just discovered this site please be gentle! Read titles for previous two years and if this is a repeat forgive me.

Cash strapped and do not really get along with anyone at my local dealer. Purchased OEM idler wheels off line and they have the correct part numbers stamped on them. 307-011.

Bolt holes are too small? Appears so small I can't believe the plastic would hold up to the bolts being pressed in. Boggie wheel bolts came right out and went right in, but the idler wheel bolts had to be pounded out? These are carriage bolts and so they can not be wrenched in.

Also, how does the axle bearing cover come off.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance
