RE: need a bigger hammer
You do have to move it fwd. its on a tapered fit. Since its in its high position, i would strike the neck right behind the lunette and at a 45° angle towards the ring. I've been able to remove everyone I've tried in this manner, even the 1953 XM105E3.
Some swift hits on the top of the lunette should break it loose. Pity your taking apart a carpenters trailer, they are quite neat. Wish I was nearby, would work out a swap for a regular M105 trailer.
