A lot of folks have gotten the steering wheel off by loosening (NOT removing) the steering wheel retaining nut, standing on the running boards and pulling up on one side and then the other. When it pops free, you'll understand why you did not want to remove that retaining nut.

It's been a couple of decades since I removed mine, but I used a large, 3-jaw puller. I took a bolt with a head on it that was wide enough to prevent it from falling down the steering shaft, drilled a small detent in the top middle of it to keep the point of the puller from sliding around, and placed it at the top of the steering shaft. It worked like a champ.

Good luck with it........Ed
