Anybody who has removed a steering wheel from an old 2A knows the joy they have been blessed with. They don't make
steering wheel pullers to fit the 50 year-old design (or at least they haven't for the last 20 years or so). This requires
people to come up with the oddest of solutions; Mine no different. A lot of to restorers are going to cry but, after
trying many different techniques I found in books and on the web to no avail, I used a good 'ol BFH. What is a BFH you
ask? Big Fluken Hammer.
I pulled on two of the spokes of the wheel and tapped on the third with a fair amount of force. After five
hammer hits I swithched spokes so the wheel wouldn't wedge on the steering shaft. With enough time and enough
slightly frustrated "taps" the wheel finally did break loose.
A little advise from a slow learner:
While swinging and pulling on the wheel keep your face clear of it's potential flight path. (but then again the
bloody nose and hurt pride were worth it for a freed steering wheel).
