For pulling steering wheels, canadian tire rents out steering wheel puller kits for free. you just leave a deposit, but get it all back when you return it. ---

He’s got the wheel off already. :wall: Did you buy the wheel used? If so, what did the hub come off of? You need a specific hub. If you go on ebay look for a hub specifically made for the 240 (will also fit Altima and Sentra of similar years) Or, call up Tekniq and order a hub from them. ---

What kind of car did he plan to put the wheel/hub on? That is probably the hub that you have. DON’T GO TO EZ! Stay as far as you can away from that shithole. They’re the biggest scam of a shop in the Edmonton area. I have the snap off system and its pretty cool. If you live/work/visit crappy parts of town, you can take your wheel and know your car isnt going to get jacked. I bought the hub alone for $40 on ebay. If you find out what car that hub is for, you can sell it and make your money back. ---

you need a boskit. You get them for specific cars to adapt aftermarket steering wheels. if they don’t make them for 240’s get a s13 silvia, 200sx or 180sx one they’ll be the same I think. They’re about $60nz so I guess thats about $40us? not too sure ---
