New Steering Wheel Help
I recently bought a new steering wheel, but I can't remove the old hub. I know these things usually freeze up like this and that I can get a steering wheel puller, but I'd rather avoid buying something I'm only going to use once if I can. Any suggestions?
Also, the screw holes for the new steering wheel dont line up with the old hub so I can't take the easy way out.

Thats funny, b/c I just bought the same exact wheel, and tried to put it on today but realized I had to change the hub also and didnt have the right tools with me . Was the wheel puller necessary?

Yeah, well even after getting the old hub off, I kinda sorta stripped all the screws in the new wheel so I had to run out and get new ones to finish the job. Didn't realize I had the Allen key for it until after they were stripped
