How Do I Remove Steering Wheel on K B6000?

[hobie]

I picked up an old Kubota B6000 last year, it has been heavily used, but motor runs great, and loader seems to function pretty well, so I'm holding on to it for now. It needs a new steering wheel, and I dont see how the old one comes off. There is a nut in center of wheel with washer and lock washer, but after removing those wheel didn't budge. Anybody know what I need to do? Any ideas of where I can get another? Thanks in advance

Here is the tool I use for removing tractor steering wheels.

Another method that I have used is to back the nut off flush with the end and wack the nut sharply with a hammer.
Flush protects the threads and generally one sharp wack does the trick. Bit of WD40 also helps. Brass hammer is also a good option if you have one.
Works every time for me.

I used a standard 2 (or 3?) jaw puller. Came off quite easily. Almost didn't need a wench.
