If this is the wheel you have to just prise out the centre button and you can get to the nut.

Hi This is hard to explane you have 3 clips (Sprung) that go into the horn push and a earthing bar so you need to give it a twisting only a little bit / pulling pushing at 2/6/10 hours , I hope its not stuck due to a repair with some super glue.
Here is some pics of mine at the end of the set

Thanks Nei. Very useful set of photos.
On another subject, my gearbox is not quite central in the hole in the body (5th picture in your first set). Any thoughts as to why that might be?

Hi John
"On another subject, my gearbox is not quite central in the hole in the body (5th picture in your first set). Any thoughts as to why that might be"
If the engine/ gearbox mounts are ok and the body is on square then it may be the hole in the tunnel was drilled by Fred on a Monday on mine and yours was Sid on a Friday.

I think you have to be specific which steering wheel you have.
The picture Neil provided is for the early wheel up to 1971.
The picture provided by Brian is for the later wheel-probably correct for your vehicle.
The hubs are totally different in construction and fitment.
