    Default Remove AW11 Steering wheel

    Want to fit a aftermarket boss kit and steering wheel, however the
    original AW11 steering wheel very hard to pull out after 17"mm centre nuts removed.
    Is there any tricky way?
    Thank you very much!

    What Tim said^. I think you can buy a special steering wheel removing tool from your local Supercheap Auto. I've never used one before so I don't know how good they are.

    Remember not to completely remove the nut in the centre! leave it sitting on the shaft by a few threads...that way it won't fly off and smash you in your face when you're yanking on it.

    cant say ive ever had a stuck steering wheel. even in my ke70 that would of never come off before

    i pushed and pulled from the top and bottom for some reason it never budges from the sides. and theres no risk of hitting your self either this way

    wd40 the shit out of it
    leave nut on the end so you dont smack yourself in the face
    sit in the seat and use arms and knees to pull on it.
    comes off eventually.
