The steering wheel sticks and squeaks and is hard to turn. I cant find any way to grease it. Do you need a puller to take the wheel off? Any suggestions?

You need to soak it with liquid wrench for a few days. No puller needed. Leave the nut on but loose by a couple of threads so when you pull on it it doesn't fly off and follow you to the back of the tractor. You could use a little heat if needed, however I didn't need heat after about 3 days of keeping it soaked down. Came right off. Also let us know if it is a new style or old style gear box. You can check your manual if you have one, if not order them from the top of this site. CHEAP, Paul

Typical problem with worn thrust bearings. When replacing, replace with genuine metal barrel bearings and not the one piece plastic ones.
Happy Motoring

What style 8N steering box? What is your serial number?
