I think I must have one of yours. I've added heat to the mix with no results either... which reminds me, time for another spritzer of PB on the wheel...

Default steering wheel removal
Tommicks,

Don't give up on it. Took me two weeks and a lot of spraying PB Blaster before it finally came off. I tried the wooden block with a wheel puller but it was damaging the bottom of the steering wheel. Got it off with a 5/8" fine thread bolt grade 8 and a 4 lb hammer, pulling up on the steering wheel as I struck the bolt with the hammer. Good luck .
Bob

I took the wheel off my 62 Original today. As far as I know it had never been off before. 1 hit it with PB Blaster once a day for 3 days. Today I hit it with PB again and popped it off with a 5 Ton, 3 jaw, Craftsman gear puller using an impact. I figured I'd try a jaw puller before spending any time rigging up some sort of device for my balancer or steering puller. Worked beautifully. Had it off in about 5 minutes.

Unfortunately only the very early cub cadets had steering wheels without the plastic covering the whole wheel. That is why this is suck a hot topic because we'd all like to find a good way to remove the wheels without damaging them if they are still in good shape. If they aren't in good shape, a good option is to break the plastic off around the hub and put a 3-jaw puller on it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
