I say ya take the nut off, and drive it around til it falls off

just Joking, thta wheel looks nice, but will it fit the 3/4 tapered shaft, or does it come with the proper hub adapter??

In an effort to avoid another mishap (as chronicled on OSO), I would use WD40 on the shaft & turn the wheel left, right, left, etc. then try to pull it off by hand. If hand pressure isn't enough, go to your local Autozone & borrow (free) their steering wheel puller.

BTW, you're going to need a 6-screw hub adapter in order to fit that Isotta knock-off on your 3/4" tapered shaft.

Good Luck!

Here's another idea-

Take about 80' of chain and secure one end to the wheel. Secure the other end to something solid- like the main support member of your home. Then, hook the boat's trailer to your truck. Start your truck, put it in gear and accelerate away at the highest possible speed. If your home is well built, it should only partially collapse. The asphalt scrapes on the bottom of the boat that happened when it was torn from the trailer should probably buff out. Now, attach a $6 puller to the hub and remove it.

If you're going to dick around, you might as well do it in a big way

That wheel ships from Hong Kong. Let me know wht it looks like (quality wise) if it ever arrives. Nice looking but seems awefully cheap!

Already got it. Took 4 days. Beautiful. I have bought quite a few Momos and Isottas for the other boats. I truthfully can't tell the difference.
