Hey everyone from 587tuners I'm in need of some help, I had recently just bought a momo Monte Carlo wheel for my eg with a momo hub and when installing my new wheel, my wheels were slightly off and now the steering wheel isn't straight :/. The hub is now stuck and I can't seem to pull it off to correct it. I was wondering if someone has a steering wheel puller or had similar problems and got it off without hassle. Someone please help, my car looks retarded with the wheel slightly off.

Ya I'm gonna swing by princess auto and maybe just do it in the parking lot. It really bugs me that it's off but if not ill just get a puller from somewhere and try it. It's weird because when I put the hub on I definitely over tightened it because my signal lights don't automatically flick back into the neutral position so I'm going to have to play with this and get it fixed. This car is nothing but work. On a side note. Does anyone know where I can get cluster bulbs. A few of my lights are burnt out and while I have the wheel off I can change them out. |

you can get those from part source, or just go to a junkyard and pull some from the same car, take like 30 seconds to pull cluster, like 10 for an EG

this is the reason why you dont tighten anything down until you check your tires and see if they are straight when installing a wheel

Ya I realize that now. I got way to ahead of myself and assumed my wheels were straight after I pulled the old wheel off. Simple mistake though I can see it easily happening to anyone.

some times they can look straight but when you start rolling they aren't as they seemed

The wheel has been fixed. Just loosened the nut off of the hub, left it on a few turns and pulled the shit out of it till it came off. Then fixed it and took the car for a drive now it's perfect!
