Removing R32 Steering Wheel?

[predator]

Any tips by somebody who has removed the factory wheel?

Usually its remove the main nut and bash job until it comes off the spline... but this one seems particularly stuborn.

Is there anything I can remove or do to make it easier?? Tried soaking in WD40.

Just got to vibrate the bugger off via the bash technique. You really need to get it wobbling then yank on the wheel!

You can use a gear puller to remove it, just use 2 screws on the steering .

If you dont have one undo the main nut a few turns and leave the nut on then try pulling on it or bash it genly from the back with a rubber hammer.

Before you take it out make sure the steering is centred and mark it with permanent marker ( the shaft and the steering ) so you can put it back in the same spot ..

I did mine a while back and twas a bitch if I can remember correctly...Just hit the very outsids of the wheel all the way around until it loosens, then try and pull it off while wiggling. I think it took me a while.

Also there was no ground connection for my new steering wheel becasue the stanard wheels plug has both connectors in 1, so I just coiled the ground cable around inside the BOSS kit and its leaning on the metal and somehow its worked since

got it off this morning.. the WD40 I think helped..

Just very quick wiggles, whilst pulling hard.. Helps when the steering wheel is 'locked' in position.

I marked it all to ensure it goes on properly afterwards without messing up the hicas, etc.
