Toucan Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Anyone had to take off the steering wheel on a mk2? I got a new wheel an boss kit i wanna chuck on but cant get the old fukn thing off. Tried evrything aye, 3 people pulling at in an then hitting it with a block of wood and it wouldnt budge. I heard of a steering wheel puller, kinda like a wine bottle opener, kinda pulls an pushes in the centre at the same time, anyone heard of them?

big tymer Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 just tap it around with a hammer you just need to crack the seal that it has formed spray some shit down there like crc or some shit keep at it or you can ask some one who is older then yourself to take it off for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
