Once you have anti-seize on they probably come off a lot easier. But I will tell you there is a night and day diff between the sledge/wood approach and using the lead hammer. I wouldn't have guessed it either. Could have been that the wheels I took off with the sledge/wood had seized up more, but I doubt it.
