Question It WON'T Budge....

...That STUPID steering wheel will not come off.

It has been soaked in wd 40, PB Blast, Driven with the nut loose. I broke one wheel puller (a cheapo). The wheel's collar and hopefully not the shaft was heated up and so far all I got is it flattened and damaged the main shaft threads...not too bad..I think it is repairable if I get the wheel off. In the process of flattening the shaft, the holes where the pulling bolts went into pulled out. It stripped the inside threads of the collar & a grade 8 bolt.

I believe this thing is hexed. It'ds almost as if someone welded this bad boy on. I have beat on it till my whimpy body can take no more.

Man I feel like a rookie at this...and since we have youth on the board I shall reserve the words for the truck and not here.

Any one with Ideas, or should I just look for a new column (preferrably without a wheel.. )
