TTRickeh Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I've had a search, can anyone just confirm that it's only the two bolts holding in the airbag, wires, and the 19mm steering column nut that needs taken off? I've pulled pretty hard and given it a few whacks but it's not budging! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Done the ones at the sides inside the pop-off panels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTRickeh Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 The torx ones holding in the airbag? Yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephendjb Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Put the centre nut back on a few turns so that when the wheel comes off you don't smash it into your face, if your not using a hub puller. Just down to brute force really but try to work your way round the wheel so you don't distort the wheel & don't forget that centre nut unless you want to break your nose. Hub puller is favourite if you can't do it by hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTRickeh Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yeah thanks for the heads up, I saw that in a previous thread and i've made sure to keep it on a few turns. I made myself a little tool to press it off out of a spare bit of metal I had lying about but it was a bit flimsy and bent the metal! I'll give it another try today but failing that, would this do? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3-Inch-2-Leg-Hub-Bearing-Puller-EPU32-/280643205474?pt=UK_Hand_Tools_Equipment&hash=item4157a37962 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephendjb Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yep that would do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
