<div style="color:black;font: 10pt arial;">Might be worth a try to attack the shaft splines with a wire wheel on a drill in a semi-aggressive or aggressive manner. It is amazing how the least little burr can bind things up. Just a thought.<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2"><span class="yiv8798976283142475423-26012020">Has anyone
experienced a problem fitting the steering wheel onto the splined steering
shaft? I can get the steering wheel hub to go onto the shaft the length of the
collet but then it hits a dead stop. I have checked both the male and female
splines and there are no obvious problems. The steering wheel is from a Mk 1 BT7
and the steering box is from a BJ7 and they have never been together before. The
fit should be loose enough to allow the hub to slide on the shaft but that
doesn't seem to be the case. It seems like either the OD of the shaft to too
large or the ID of the hub too small.</span></font></div>
