    I just cut the three spokes leaving about an inch of spoke. Ground the back side of each spoke flat angling up towards the center then used a three jaw puller. Popped right off.:v6:

    The bearing seperator worked great for me, as long as you don't care about damaging the back side of the steering wheel.

    I feel your pain. I cut the three spokes off and then used a cutting wheel to get the whole thing down to the very center piece. Then I used a dremmel with a cutting disc on it and very carefully cut the center ring off. I did nick a thread on the column, so if you do this, be very careful.

    Good Luck
