Steering wheel removal

Anonymous-0 · Jun 10, 2015

I am trying to remove the steering wheel on my U302 during my restoration. I have been told not to use a puller due to the power steering pump under the wheel, and it being easy to damage. The current steering wheel seems stuck on the shaft pretty good. I think this has been discussed before, but does anyone have any suggestions?

If its really really stuck put a puller on it tighten it down as much as you can spray it with penetrating oil and let it set. Next day hit the end of tbe puller with a hammer as hard as you feel comfortable so as to not break anything tighten it and spray it with penetrating oil again. Repeat until it comes off.

The 4 P's; Patience, Pounding, Puller's, and Propane. Pull it, heat it up, tap it, pound on it, more heat, pull, leave it overnight, repeat. Day after day, one day she'll pop loose.

OOOp, forgot the 5th P; PB Penetrant. Spray on PB Blaster, it works great.
