All of those things can be removed to gain access. There are fender washers behind the nuts. As for the puller, it's cheaper than buying another wheel and box if you ruin either by some other means. You'll also find that puller is very useful. I use mine frequently.

Wow, thank you everybody. Matt G, big thanks to you for showing me your wheel puller. I have everything but the Oak block of wood but thats no problem to get my hands on. I've got plenty of PB Blaster in the shop. It's good stuff. I had to use it this year to pull a flywheel off an old Onan 20hp twin. You guys are great, and have really been a big help!
OK, now where did I put that Dynamite???

Make sure to let the blaster have some time to work.....

It's not always fast, but it IS relentless.

When I put my steering wheel back on after rebuilding the steering column and sector, I used some anti-sieze grease on the splines; both on the steering wheel and worm shaft. I think that stuff saves a lot of problems if, for some reason, it would need to be removed again.

then, take the nut off, get a pneumatic air hammer - just put in a flat bit, or a tipped one that will fit in the hole of the steering shaft. Hit it with the air hammer, and then pull up on the wheel. Mine came off nice and easy, and the nut was pretty rusted since it didn't have the cover.
This works for me all the time

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.
