Was a puller ever available to remove fc steering wheels to avoid the brute strength method ,or maybe a modern one to do the job .cheers Steve.

Yes there was. The puller had two L-shaped legs that went in through the oval holes in the steering wheel hub. You turn them a quarter turn to engage behind the hub, and then pull the steering wheel off.
Grinding most of the head off hex-head bolts works, sort-of, but damages the steering wheel. It's best to weld more material onto the bolt head so the bottom of the "L" only just fits through the oval slots.

Remember: if your Holden's not leaking oil, it doesn't have any.

Hi Steve. The removal tool is part No. 1606, COXHEAD STEERING WHEEL PULLER ,[to suit HOLDEN]. The one shown here has FE stamped on one side.
. I bought this one @ a swap meet back in "the dark ages". removal is easy. Good luck. Kevin.
