I have to agree with Bob. =C2=A0 You say you want the steering wheel out of=
 the way. =C2=A0Well I can't imagine that a steering wheel out of your way =

 The wheel is a piece of cake (single large snap ring). The trafficator, wh=
ich has to be removed first, is a real PITA. The usual 'technique' is to di=
sconnect the trafficator harness at the front of the car,and pull the movab=
le part out. But, it's possible, if you have enough slack in the harness, t=
o pull the top part of the stator tube out and disconnect the wiring at the=
 hub (take lots of photos). All things considered, I think Plan A is the le=
ast hassle; drain the steering box first (you'll lose most of the fluid any=
way when you loosen the olive). Plan B involves messing with a lot of small=
, non-standard screws, which have a tendency to evaporate.

 Possibly the hardest part (Plan A) is feeding the harness wires back throu=
gh the lower portion of the stator tube to replace the wheel/hub.
