Steering Wheel Puller

Gonna change out the Sport Steering Wheel on my ‘70 Olds. Can anyone recommend a good, quality steering wheel removal tool ?

Just get a cheap one from Harbor Freight. will work great, and you will never wear it out. Or if you go to swap meets, may find a cheap one. I have also pulled many off with my legs arms and a hammer, Take the nut all most off, to protect the threads and slide seat forward,get your one arm and legs to push from behind on the wheel, and tape with the hammer on the nut, and it will come off. Did this a lot of times when I did not have a puller.

They last a lifetime.

I made one when I worked at a repair shop 60 years ago.


It looks like I intended it to last 4 lifetimes!
