NoSlow5.0 · 05-22-2001, 07:14 PM

I am trying to swap steering wheels on my 87 GT(no air bag, with cruise control). I can't figure out how to get the wheel off and my stupid a$$ Hanes manual is a piece of **** that doesn't help at all! Someone please help Thanks Jonathan

I had an 87GT and all I had to do was remove the center bolt and borrow a steering wheel puller from a friend. If you can't borrow one rent it from Advance Auto.

Good luck

Thanks Stang Roty. I got it off. I just had to relax for a second, then i went out and figured it out real quick. New wheel looks great. Light Em Up!!

No prob! That's what we are here for. I wish I could do it to mine but I think I'll keep the airbag :-)

CALM DOWN!?!? STEERING WHEEL PULLER!?!?

If I were doing it, i would have taken out that bolt, gotten good and angry, sat in the seat and pulled till it came off and subsequently hit me in the face. Then i would probably destroy the wheel.
