Farmall 756 Steering Wheel Removal

JohnPawlicki · Jan 18, 2009

I need to remove the steering wheel (I have oil coming from under it) on my 756 Farmall When I take the center over off there is a nut to remove. There are three or four (just do not quite remember how many) holes with either 1/4 course or fine thread. I think these are for a puller of some kind. Ok the question 1) how do I pull the steering wheel and 2) what will I find after the steering wheel is pulled?

John,

They make a specific tool called a steering wheel puller that is designed to do the job. Cheap ones are cast pieces that look like the inside of a peace sign (A Y with the extra leg).

The casting bolts to those smaller holes you mentioned, and a larger bolt in the center pushes on the shaft to pull the steering wheel off.

8 to 12 bucks at autozone or oreillys.

You will also need two 1/4 fine thread bolts 5 1/2 inch long and a 1/4 fine thread bottoming tape.

Well as there are two1/4 fine thread bolt holes next to where the shaft comes up thru the wheel and this is where ya pull from Now many times these oles are hard to see because of rust or dirt built up .Once you remove the nut tha holds the steering wheel on clean up the area around it . There have been times that i have had to use a drill bit to clean out the holes because of rust build up . The reason for such long bolts is that the bolt holes are just a wee bit to close together for most pullers to get a good dtight shot at them . On my snap on puller i had to grind the slots to be able to use it to pull steering wheels on I H tractors . And i am here to tell ya i have pulled more then my far share of them fixen leaks on the steering motor or as some call it the hand pump. Now if ya need any more advice feel free to just ask me.

Hey,

i got a 756 to and that steering wheel leak happened to me to its just a seal under the steering wheel. I actually had a question for you did you ever have a problem with the steering not working when you first start it up and it takes a while to come up even when the system is clean and filter. if you did how did you fix it cause its a pain to steer.

thanks, dc
