Steering Wheel Removal Tricks? (the nut is out!)
OK - this is really taxing my patience. I've long been able to easily remove the 24mm nut holding the steering wheel in place - and I've tried lots of WD-40 and PB Blaster - but the steering wheel just will not budge. Nor can I see how to get a puller to engage to help with this. Any tricks to this? Thanks!

+1. It's a pain, but if you keep at it and are patient, it will eventually come out.

just don't hit yourself in the face with it when it finally breaks free!
