#166922 - 03/02/10 08:22 PM Steering Wheel on 31 Sedan
Bama31 Shade Tree Mechanic Registered: 11/11/08 Posts: 113 Loc: Huntsville, AL	Does anyone have an idea on removing the steering wheel from the steering shaft without the puller shown in the repair manual? The steering wheel is in fairly good shape and I don't want to damage it by doing the wrong thing, which I have been known to do.

I am pretty sure that the topic is in the 1937-42 section. Found the topic. http://vcca.org/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/124720/1 Edited by jack39rdstr (03/02/10 09:10 PM) _________________________ Jack

Have someone pull on the steering wheel and hit the nut with a hammer. The wheel will pop loose. I've done it many times. _________________________ See you Touring on the Back Roads.

Bama31 Shade Tree Mechanic Registered: 11/11/08 Posts: 113 Loc: Huntsville, AL	Well, I tapped the two holes, used a gear puller, and the wheel came right off. No problems. Thanks again for all of the advise. _________________________ From the "Heart of Dixie", Ralph http://31chevyproject.shutterfly.com/ "See the USA in your Chevrolet".
