pfrederi 18,195 #1 Posted January 25 Is there a way to remove the cap with out destroying it? This is about my only horse that still has a cap. Got the roll pin out but need to get cap off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kpinnc 13,125 #3 Posted January 25 The plastic used on those is very thin. I've never been able to remove it without breaking. But WheelHorse 3D makes a nice replacement... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 69,748 #4 Posted January 25 I've seen a wheel that shape that didn't have a removable cap. Solid top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 18,195 #5 Posted January 25 I think the cap is going...besides no cap makes it easier to squirt a little lube on it once and awhile ...makes removal in the future easier... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pfrederi 18,195 #6 Posted January 25 Got the cap off drilled a couple holes and pried... but there was solid plastic under it down to the start of the steering shaft ...over an inch of plastic.... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think the one on my 1985 312 is removable, don't see a seam, looks solid to me. Edited January 29 by Lee1977 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RED-Z06 2,390 #10 Posted January 29 To my knowledge once the roll pin is out there isnt anything under the steering wheel to retain it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True except for 40 years of corrosion and to use a puller have to access the end of the shaft 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
