If he is an employee or an owner of the shop in the video, stuff like this can easily discredit any skills he/they have to potential customers. I stopped watching the video after a few minutes, was going to comment "Use a puller". I fast forwarded to where he finally used the puller because of your comment. In a more professional video, he would have the appropriate tools handy before filming even started. That's how a mechanic works in the field (I'm a former dealership and aftermarket tech).

DevinRAR I know, I would keep the airbag, but as mentionned on the website, it's a street steering wheel, which means it can be used without harnesses, it doesn't mean you should do it but there's people who want to do it, so nrg provide them wheels and make money. But since most people that have a racing steering wheel don't have harnesses, they added some safety features just as a bendable rim.

There's 2 threaded holes in part you wanted off. Make a plate with same hole pattern and another large hole in middle. Weld a nut on center hole, get a bolt same thread and put a point on it. Bolt the plate to the 2 holes and tighten center bolt to walk the base off. Or use a gear puller like you did and if you have one. Guess if you can blow up a 2JZ, you can also break a steering wheel.

The two small holes, one on either side of the center bolt in the steering wheel "hub", are for a steering wheel puller. Works kinda like the two jaw puller but with minimal chance of damage when used correctly. Just saying you could've saved a bunch of time and not broken the unsafe one lol. I've been watching you for awhile now and like most of your videos, I wish I lived somewhere with even a decent car scene. Lol

tip of the day: next time, to make your day easier, tap the hub with a rubber mallet while you pull on it. and applying a small bit of grease or anti seize when you install your new hub will help.

EugenioFaz hahaha why does this not have any comments? Definitely makes sense. If you forcefully move it in direction it’s not intended to go, it will break.... doesn’t help that nrg is a cheap brand but I mean like if it happens to fit your budget and seems durable when you get it, go for it, just don’t cry or shit on it when it breaks because of you. If it broke while driving or releasing the hub, that’s the company. If it breaks bc you rip on it hard, your fault

This is safe, it won't come off while driving and it is made to bend or to pop off if you hit your head in case of a crash. It's fucking made to do that because this is a street steering wheel not a racing one like other wheels that don't rip apart.

@eins2001 6 жыл бұрын

Actually, this wheel is 99% guaranteed to not have a DOT approval number. It is illegal to remove or disable any safety component in a car, such as an airbag, UNLESS it didn't come from the factory with an airbag. This wheel is meant to be used on a car used only for show or track use. Now, if you use this in a race vehicle where you encounter higher G-forces it is, in fact, going to eventually pop apart as it didn't even take much effort. Most tracks also require you to have a proper racing seat, harness, and rollcage. So whether you use it legally or illegally, this wheel is 100% unsafe due to very poor construction.
