You remove the two bolts from the front of the horn button that releases the horn ring from the rear then you unscrew the four screws and remove the horn button from the front and that will reveal the nut holding the wheel on. The two threaded holes will be on ether side of the steering shaft nut.

Thee are no threaded holes in there. See the attached pic.

Get a steerinfg wheel puller kit, find the bolts that fit into those holes, and use the puller to remove the wheel from the steering shaft.

One of the things I'm scratching my head over is finding the right place to pull it from. It's a '64 Plymouth sport wheel, so it has a double horn ring. Pulling in the edges of the ring isn't good because it moves, and it's hard to get in between the ring bars and the back of the wheel. See the attached pic. By the way, this is a pic of the wheel we restored before we started working on it.
Thanks,
Dave

You need a tool with the catchy name: "steering wheel puller". :) You used to be able to "rent" them for free at some parts stores. (There is also a handy tool called a "Steering Wheel Lock Plate Remover and Installer" too if the future calls for additional Mopar blood letting.) One tip is to loosen but leave the nut on the steering shaft until the wheel "pops" loose. Otherwise you risk mushrooming the threads at the end of the shaft. (Don't ask me how I know.)
