62 Original: Steering wheel removal
I've been tearing down my 62 original and I'm having trouble getting the steering wheel off. I got the cap nut off, but how do I remove the the wheel? Does it pull of? Twist off? Do I need a puller to remove it? I'm stuck.

The Steering Wheel is on a splined shaft. Try soaking the hub/shaft splines with something like PB Blaster for a while. You may need a puller.

It took me a long time of soaking it in PB. I put the nut on 1/2 way, and hit the top of the nut while having someone pull on it. But remember the wheel will only travel as far as the nut is backed off. Just a word of caution; You WILL need to replace the nut by doing this, because it will flatten it out, but a new one isn't a lot at a hardware store and if your restoring it, you will want a new one anyways.
If that doesn't work, I have also used a gear puller before.

if your going to use a puller dont use it right on the shaft find a way to pull on the nut on there avoid hitting the shaft because it will mush room up and then be junk.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
