You're new here, right?

Meanwhile, back at the Help Center, look for a can of this stuff -


- at a local auto supply or hardware store.

(Kroil can be had to find at retailers, but is an awesome penetrant lube once you have some!)

This FreezeOff blows COLD LIQUID along with the penetrant lube it carries.

Blown into that hollow crank spindle it may be the ticket for getting it unstuck from the bearing inner races.
Maybe spray a little teensy bit onto the outer spindle surfaces as well where they enter the bearings. Can't hurt.
