Stanley- I have never used this tool but Brattons (the Model A folks), have a steering wheel puller for Model As that looks like it could also work on early V8s. If you get a chance look at item number #05705. Web site is: http://www.brattons.com. Tom

Stanley, Where are you located? I made my own steering wheel puller that works very well. I have loaned it out to other V8 Club members here in Maryland.

I am located in Minnesota. Could you send a picture of your steering wheel puller so I could make one. Thanks, Stanley

Here are some pics of the steering wheel puller that I made. http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-9.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-8.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-7.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-5.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-4.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-3.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-2.jpg http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e157/flathead_jer/Flathead%20Tools/SteeringWheelPuller-1.jpg I forgot to mention that I just back the steering wheel holding nut off until it reaches the top of the steering shaft threads. Then I put that small piece of flat stock between the nut and the puller screw before I torque the screw down. If you don't do this you could damage the treads on the shaft. Some of the wheels I have removed with this puller were very very tight on the tapered fit up. I would never had gotten them off with out some type of puller. The KRW SW puller is a very good puller but I like to make/build tools to work on my old Fords whenever possible.

JM, I have a 1935 Ford that I want to install a 36 banjo wheel. Do you sell copies of your homemade puller?

Mittie, I just happened to check in here and read this old post that's now 10 years old. I still have this puller and have detailed pictures of it disassembled, but not sure those pics have detailed measurements or specifications on each piece. Where are you located?
