Steering Column Removal ?

The hub of the steering wheel slips over a shaft with a keyway and is held on with a fine thread nut. The steering shaft is easily damaged if belted with enthusiasm once the nut has been removed. It is not splined. The wire from the horn runs down the middle of the steering shaft.

you are correct about the keyway and no spline...comes from not removing one for 25 years or so

plus instead of a steering wheel I have a 2nd joy stick now.
