Exclamation HELP removing Steering Wheel Nut (JDM Steering Wheel Install)

I'm trying to install my JDM SRS Steering wheel into my teg and am having a VERY hard time trying to remove the Steering Wheel Nut. It won't budge at all.
Anyone have any recommendations on either how they removed it or what my best procedure is to get it off?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

do you have enough leverage? maybe you just need a breaker bar or find a pipe to go over the handle to give yourself more leverage.

you mean its too tight? if its too tight use a breaker bar.
If u don't have a breaker bar try to attach a pipe on the end of the handle so it'll be easier.

ZIRCONIA, YOU ARE A GENIUS! i tried it and it opened right up. I sat on the bar while holding the steering wheel. Ok, off to go install it now. Wish me luck the rest of the way!
