steering wheel removal?
On my 65 Olds want to remove my steering wheel in efforts to fix my turn signals.
The switch broke and the pieces are inside the steering column.
I will try to get pictures soon

Do you have your chassis service manual? It should have detailed instructions for removing the horn button/cover w/o damage (wish i had read that part of mine before i tried...)
Otherwise just borrow/rent a steering wheel puller tool from your local autoparts store. Remove the big nut at the hub- install & tighten the puller, and off the wheel will come.

The shaft and wheel are splined and it is a tight fit and that is why a puller is needed. I would suggest you purchase a harmonic balancer puller as it works on steering wheels too.... You will have 2 tools in one and they are pretty inexpensive.

I've never, ever had that method work (tried it many a time!). If it's a plastic steering wheel you can break or crack it using this method.
