Hi
I could not the shaft away from the base either without doing damage. Surely it just fits in there and held by the bolt
I thought it was just corroded in there by the dissimilar metal corrosion. Like many of the other bolts through the alloy
It seems to me that you have a great opportunity to see what's in there. Get the angle grinder out and see if you can dislodge it .Base is already had it so not further damage.

Have you ever been able to get that spindle shaft off a base
I guess we are unlikely ever to need that shaft as it should not wear with all the grease.

Does that pulley have a step worn into it from belt
I thought maybe they all do.
