Dont, leave the nut loose by 1 turn. If it goes loose, it won't fall off and you will still be able to steer.

Ive never been beaten by any steering wheel, I loosen the centre nut level with the steering column threads & smash it
with a lump hammer a couple of times to shock it then wiggle n pull side to side. Helps if yer angry when doing it.

Got it off yet?
Yes! Just done it with the help of a better puller. Thanks to everyone here for the advice.
It will have to come off again at some point because I need to buy an indicator cancelling ring. I thought there’d be one behind the Momo wheel but it just has two screws sticking out the back. See pic. It looks like somebody adapted it for a Land Rover at some point.
(Are non-cancelling indicators an MOT failure?)

Cancelling ring is on the column and you should have two little tabs on the back of the new wheel to locate into it. These are what the screws do on the momo adapter.

Yes I’ve seen pics of the cancelling ring but I don’t have one with the new (old) wheel so will have to get one.

Happy days, didn't know you could get them.
I also did not realise they were a sperate part, I though tit was integrated into the steering wheel. But I also agree with the previous comments these are the beast steering wheel for a defender!

Never take it all the way off, you get face ache or a window out otherwise ...
