[Tigers] Steering wheel

[mwood24020 at aol.com]

Theo, I've had the same experience...a good, swift tug is enough to get 
the wheel off. I think the only car I've ever needed to use a puller 
was my old 240Z when I put on the "Racemark" leather wheel :)

This is probably scary to admit but I’ve never had a problem removing 
the steering wheel… I have the original wheel and a smaller leather 
wheel that I sometimes used for autocross, so I’ve gone back and forth 
a few times. I just undo the nut, wiggle (the wheel) a bit and it comes 
off. Biggest thing to watch for is that I don’t accidentally knock the 
adjustable part down the column. That would take a five minute task and 
extend it a LOT.


Andy, I recall those horn ring screws are like 10-32 or something like 
that? I’d worry about pulling the threads… on the other hand, given how 
easily mine comes off, you might be OK using those screw holes with a 
puller.


Good luck,
Theo
