Hello all,
I'm looking for a little help. I have a "95 XJ and have the '95/ '96 airbags figured out. Disengaged and pulled. I can't seem to figure out the type of steering wheel puller to use or where to connect it. I've looked at every thread I can find but no luck.
Here's the wheel after airbag removed. What's next to remove this wheel?
A couple of pics would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all.

The one I used looks like a chicken foot. I'll see if I can find a pic

Thanks for the pic. I actually bought a similar tool but it doesn't seem to be the right one. The threaded holes, right and left of the center bolt, are too close to the center for the bolts to fit. It also looks like this wheel needs to be removed with a claw type puller instead but there only seems to be one suitable anchor point for the claws.

I'm sure it isn't this complicated but I'm stumped.

I don't have an exact answer but maybe a way to aid in finding one. The 94-96 xjs had a different wheel than any other year, but looks identical to one from a 93-95 GRAND Cherokee. The extra searching option may help. Good luck!
