Steering Wheel Removal, Continued:
4. Loosen the steering wheel nut (27) and back it off approximately 1/4 inch (6 mm). Do not remove the
nut (Figure 7-4, Page 7-5).
5. Use the steering wheel puller (CCI 102061201) to remove steering wheel.
5.1. Place the puller anvil (4) through the top opening of the steering wheel (Figure 7-1, Page 7-2).
5.2. Insert the anvil feet through the two slots in the base plate (marked “B”) (5) as shown (Figure 7-1,
Page 7-2).
5.3. Rotate the anvil screw (6) clockwise until the base plate contacts the bottom of the steering wheel
where it attaches to the steering column (Figure 7-2, Page 7-2).
5.4. Using a 1/2 inch drive air impact wrench, tighten the anvil screw (6) until the steering wheel
breaks free from the steering shaft.
5.5. Remove the steering wheel puller.
5.6. Remove the steering wheel nut (27) and the steering wheel (25) from the steering column (20)
(Figure 7-4, Page 7-5).
STEERING WHEEL INSTALLATION
NOTE: To minimize corrosion and to make future removal of the steering wheel easier, apply a small amount
of oil or anti-seize compound to steering shaft splines and taper before installing the steering wheel.
1. Install the steering wheel (25) on the splines of the steering shaft (19). Be sure to align the match
marks placed on the wheel and steering column shaft in step 3 above (Figure 7-4, Page 7-5).
2. Install the steering wheel nut (27) and tighten to 13 ft-lb (17.6 N·m).
3. Install the steering wheel plate (28) and plate mounting screws (30) (Figure 7-4, Page 7-5). Tighten
screws to 16 in-lb (1.8 N·m).
