WHAT?!?!?! :shock:

Spray the spline where you took off the nut with WD40, let it sit a few mins then grab the wheel firmly on opposite ends and "walk" it out by rocking it towards you.

A few sharp blows with the palm of your hands on the rim of the steering wheel usually works things loose as well before you start to "walk" it out.

There is a special puller that you can use to get it off, not sure who might have one though.

just wait till you start modifying suspension parts.. (I just hope you don't take the same approach for that as well.. :lol:
