Default Problem removing Momo Hub...

I was trying to remove my momo steering wheel tonight, and I was unable to get the hub off. I removed the nut that holds it on, but the hub wouldn't budge. I put so much force into getting it off and it still wouldn't budge. Am I doing something wrong? When I installed the wheel, the hub just slid right on and I bolted it down. This isn't making sense to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The Momo hub is a very close fit. Damn near pressed on after you get the nut on. I had to get it off because I had it pretty far off center. I used lots of PB Blaster. You can try to bolt the the wheel on with the nut off the steering column. Then try wiggling it off. Also, if you have the little boot off the Momo hub, slide a BIG pry bar in there, and start yanking on that. That's how I got mine off.

yeah, thats what I was trying but the structure of the hub was bending. I guess I gotta give it all i got and pull.

I used a hammer and just tapped on mine until it came off. It will come off, but you have to be patient.

alright thanks guys. I was suppose to sell the wheel tonight, but obviously I couldn't cause I couldn't get it off. Lesson to be learned here: Don't make plans to sell something until you are actually ready to sell it.
