I'm going to try and put a new steering wheel on my 914 this weekend. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks,

QUOTE(lapuwali @ May 27 2004, 10:17 AM) I've often found the nut isn't even on all that tight. It doesn't really need to be, since the shaft is splined. Loosen the nut, but don't completely remove it. Give the wheel a good yank or two until you feel it move, then remove the nut completely and pull off the wheel. If you don't leave the nut in place, you're likely to smack yourself in the head with the wheel when it comes off... I wonder how you would know that? I did mine the same way, I wound up using a BAW to take the bolt off. It wasnt that tight. Good thing too, cause a wrench doesnt get much of a grip on it. |
