  • Today on Classics AB, I am going to show you how to quickly and easily remove & install a steering wheel on a 2003-2007 Silverado, Sierra, Suburban, Escalade, Yukon, etc. Should be about the same steps for any early 2000s GMC / Chevy Truck or SUV. This is one of those projects that almost any one should be able to accomplish with two basic tools. As with any project, even simple ones, take your time, use your brain, and everything should work out just fine for you. On this project just make sure to disconnect that battery!!

    Little trick for easier wheel removal.
    Take the nut off 75% like he says, sit in the seat, put both feet up against floor pan, pull as hard as you can while wiggling the wheel. Pops off instantly
    Again, make sure you don’t take that nut off completely otherwise you’ll be replacing teeth.

      Yep, definitely keep the nut on there before you go ape on it, or your face is gonna have a bad day lol 😂

    realistically if my airbag was deployed years ago, the wheel should be easier to take off?

    • @CLASSICSAREBETTER
      @CLASSICSAREBETTER  Před 8 měsíci

      It might be a little easier, it would be the same process though, make sure your battery is disconnected! Best of luck!

    So my steering wheel has too much play. I've replaced entire front end. The t25 bolts won't stay tight. Would you say I need to replace steering wheel? I replaced gear box as well. I can't find the name of what to fix. Please help 🙏

    • @CLASSICSAREBETTER
      @CLASSICSAREBETTER  Před 2 měsíci

      Hmm lots of unknowns with you replacing everything, did you get a new steering coupler (rag joint)? That can give you some play if it's old & worn or torn up.

  • @keithdodson7223
    @keithdodson7223 Před 3 měsíci +2

    Everything went well but the truck won’t start now, it acts like it wants to start but doesn’t. Did I mess up some sort of anti theft mechanism? I have a 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe.

    • @CLASSICSAREBETTER
      @CLASSICSAREBETTER  Před 3 měsíci

      Hmm I haven't run into that scenario yet. Did you unhook the battery when you swapped the wheels? All I can think of is maybe when you pulled the old wheel off it pulled on a wire, or an ignition fuse blew, or if you somehow tripped a code and it thinks the airbag has deployed already and it's like a safety thing....is there a check engine light on or anything?

      @@CLASSICSAREBETTER Sorry for the late reply. I'm not really sure how I fixed it but I did. I had unhooked the battery so I did the whole process again and it is fine. I had walked away for a couple hours so maybe it reset.

    Hi, just picked me up a classic Silverado 07 with the steering wheel not centering correctly to the wheels, could I take the steering wheel of and just align it that way or is there something that forces it to go in a specific way?

    • @CLASSICSAREBETTER
      @CLASSICSAREBETTER  Před měsícem +1

      You should be able to straighten your wheels then remove the steering wheel and reattach it straight/centered to match if that's what your asking. Good luck, congrats on the "new" Silverado!

    • @CLASSICSAREBETTER
      @CLASSICSAREBETTER  Před 10 měsíci

      You can give that a try, it's not gonna fit perfect as it will be slightly larger, but you could probably get it done, if you start marring up the nut though stop and just get the right size (that's how I build my tool collection one project at a time lol). I'd also maybe try a 9/16 socket if you have one that size. Best of luck on your project!
