If you removed the locking pin, rust molecules could still be holding hands where the king pin goes thru the axle. I used an old king pin ground down for clearance as a drift to drive the second one out that was being stubborn. Be sure the axle is supported solidly and use the biggest hammer you have. Rust penetrant would also be a good idea. Maybe soak it for a day or so.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
