PLEASE HELP
I am trying to remove my Steering wheel. It is an aftermarket one. I have an impact wrench and can get the nut off with no problem. I have removed the same steering wheel before, but now it won't pull off. I have pulled as hard as I can to no avail! If I pull any harder I may break the steering wheel. Any additional suggestions would be helpful. |

Why is it SO bad to use a impact wrench to put the steering wheel nut back on? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

This is certainly not what I expected down here. Group: Members Posts: 849 Joined: 21-May 09 From: Bodymore Murderland Member No.: 10,389 Region Association: MidAtlantic Region |
Why is it SO bad to use a impact wrench to put the steering wheel nut back on? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Because you exceeded the torque spec by a ton. Spray some wd40 or penetrant down and tap back down with a hammer then work it back up. |
