steering wheel replacement question?????
Do you have to use a steering wheel puller to remove the steering wheel on an 07 f150.???...............the dealer says no...just take off bolt and wheel comes off.......tried it and it will not come off.......any suggestions????

I watched my Ford tech friend when he removed mine to install the cruise control switch;he used both hands and pulled on it and it came off.
BTW,did you wind up keeping the new steering wheel? You could have saved well over $100.00 or more had you gone with just the cruise control switch! Ah well,live and learn!

Thats a dayum good price!
You have to grab that sucker and pull and wiggle on it until it comes off!
And yes,Ford has to flash the computer to program the cruise control.I had the total job done for $100.00!
