steering wheel
 

Having trouble removing my old steering wheel. I think it might be orginal, any tips? Thanks.

install puller if available with puller installed and force applied by puller hit bolt on puller downward firmly towards steering shaft, if no puller is available with steering wheel nut off while pulling upward on wheel have someone use a brass punch (as not to damage shaft) and hammer on shaft firmly but be careful somtimes the wheel can release quickly and pulling person should be prepared for the instant release. Good luck

What kind of puller?

Re: steering wheel
 

A steering wheel puller. It is essentially a large screw with 2 clamps threaded on it. As you turn the screw, it pushes down on the steering shaft and the clamps pull up on the steering wheel hub.

Thanks, do they sell them?

Yes, even Sears will sell you a steering wheel puller - but be sure your steering wheel has some threaded holes to receive the bolts of the puller.
