Well it’s time to check wheel bearings and change a couple of tires on my 1404.
What method is best and what secrets can anyone tell me to make this easier?

Split the track or cut the ubolt(s).

I have tried the pry it in there method and it is not worth the fight.

I discovered it's really not that hard to de-track and re-track.
I'm sure it's a lot harder in the field, so the object is to not need too.

Out of 8 (foam filled) tires, only 2 really were. They were not in front.
And I replaced 5 other rotten tires. I think I'll keep air in them for now (maybe some slime too).
