Post by: 76Challenger on March 04, 2017, 10:15:11 AM

Anyone know how to remove this steering hub? I removed the center nut do I need a puller from here or?

Heat it up with a torch around the shaft area. Standard puller might not fit right, get creative and make it work somehow.

You need to put some pressure on it and use a brass drift on the shaft and give it a good smack, that's a tapered shaft.

Probability take two good whacks.

A couple of 2x4's against the hub and the dash works well.
