My '44 h had a tree fall on it years ago. It bent the steering wheel, and the previous owner's head. Turns out, it also bent the steering post ever so slightly. So slightly that you really have to be looking at it to notice. But of course I notice. So, I want to straighten it.
One suggestion was to use a come-along. But another friend said that wouldn't be precise enough for the little bit I want to straighten it. He suggested we knock out the pin shown below, put a pipe over the top, and straighten it. But I haven't been able to find any sort of pin that looks like this one looks like.
What kind of pin is this? The part catalog doesn't show it, so I don't have a replacement number. Is removing it going to be more trouble than I expect?
Does anyone have a suggestion on a better, easier way to straighten it?
