Lunar240z Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 this is a spanner and yes it's 22mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neorazz Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 ok if thats a spanner then whats the screw type thing you use to push your rear calipers back in place when your doing your brakes? i thought that was called a caliper spanner and the stearing tool looked very similar it bolted on left and right side and the socket is in the middle so it pulls the steering wheel and the nut at the same time they just called a wheel removal tool:ugg: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtsnlvrs Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Use a 22mm socket to remove the nut, then use a pulley puller to get the wheel off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom'sZ Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 there has always been a steering wheel puller tool. In the old days we used to rent them from the parts store. Now I think they make them so cheap you just buy them instead. It is a simple gear puller type setup like you said two bolts thread in from either side then a big bolt in the center pushes against the shaft and pops it off. If the wheel has ever been off, there's probably a good chance you can remove the center bolt and just give a good yank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
