Question Steering WHeel Removal

How do I pull the steering wheel off an 1989 F-150 XLT? I got the horn buttons/face off but can't get the steering wheel off the column. I don't have the special tool for it either and don't have the $$$$ to buy it. Help would be great.

Thanks

Whatever you do don't put one hand on each side with your face right in the middle of the wheel and pull. this could cause damage. Go to autozone and rent the puller.

It seems there is no backyard mechanic way to do this. Thanks guys, I guess I'll go rent one.

it costs you nothing, you pay when you take it, then they return money when you bring it back.

painless.
