Have a 1952 TO-30.Finally was able to loosen the acorn nut that holds on the steering wheel after weeks of soaking it w/penetrating oil.Was hoping the steering wheel would lift right off after removing the nut,however it would not budge,I wonder if there is some trick to getting it off.Any suggestions?

It's on a tapered shaft and they really do stick. You need a puller to get it off.

That steering wheel is just pressed-on. If you can get a steering wheel puller (similar to a gear puller or tie rod puller), that might be easiest. If not, I've heard of guys using 2x4's on each side to pry up, using hammers to smack on it while pulling-up on it (2 man job), or making a puller of sorts using whatever parts you have available. Twist a nut on turn or so, so when it does pop, it doesn't jump off and clobber you in the head. If you are replacing the steering wheel, an air chipper/hammer or cutting torch will get it off as a last resort.
