ABSTRACT:
A compact universal steering wheel pulling system (10) includes a yoke member (20) having a centrally located threaded through opening (22) formed therethrough. Yoke member (20) additionally is provided with a plurality of pairs of slotted through openings (24, 26 and 28) wherein each pair of slotted through openings has one slotted through opening diagonally displaced from the other, equidistantly about the centrally located through opening (22). Each pair of slotted through openings (24, 26 and 28) are dimensionally different each from the other to allow the steering wheel pulling system (10) to be utilized with a large variety of steering wheel configurations. To further facilitate the universal use of steering wheel pulling system (10) yoke member (20) is of sufficiently small size to be insertable within the hub (110) of steering wheel (100). In cooperation with the size of yoke member (20), a threaded member (30) is provided with a fine thread to provide adequate mechanical advantage in applying the pulling force. For use with hollow steering wheel shafts (120), steering wheel pulling system (10) is provided with a cap member (40) for transmitting the force from threaded member (30) to the steering column shaft (120).
