Removing steering wheel
Not really having fun doing this, I can't get it to move.So far I've been suggested:
Wiggle it side to side/up and down, but the wheel bends and I don't really get anywhere
Pull while a mate hits the centre bolt with a hammer, but doesn't seem to work
Any other suggestions?
Yes buy a proper puller tool, mate
yep been here before!
i had to go and buy a little puller from halfords of somewhere like that, specifically for vauxhall steering wheels, it locates in the holes either side of the nut, then you srew the centre in and pops the steering wheel off! fink it was bout a tenner! couldnt find any other way to get the fecker off!
Looked for the tools sold locally to me (Halfords/Motor World/other motor factors) with no success. Best I've found is a tool by Draper on ebay for ?15 posted. Just hoped someone had a clever trick for removing it without spending money that can be spent elsewhere.
nope soz but, i was hoping the same thing, but its the only way!
hey iv been there if you start wacking the main spine you can bend the threads over and completly f**k them up, so i went to uni part and bought a bearing puller done the job just right.
the puller you need has to be realy small as its a tight gap.
anyway your all wimps
