For the longest time I tried to find the answer to this problem online. I inherited a 1972 White 1270 with a property we bought a few years ago. Every winter the steering wheel would freeze solid in extreme cold. Luckily I found David Perry a 79 year-old vintage tractor mechanic. Water over the years had got into the steering wheel column box. Removing the fill and drain nuts, he used a heat gun to melt the ice. It took an hour using heat before the water stopped dripping out. He filled the box with steering oil and the wheel has not frozen since. He believes rainwater/melting snow got in from the top of the steering column over many years, and ours had the steering wheel centre cap missing. I'm sure there are other reasons why a steering wheel could be unmoveable in the cold, but here is one solution.
