I'm tired of the "wood" trim piece on my steering wheel squirming around when I grip the wheel. I want to swap the wheel for the non-wood, heated one. But my allowance is being spent elsewhere this month. So today I decided to try re-gluing it.

After asking here (with no response) and doing a bit of research, I decided to try contact cement. I was hoping for a less messy solution. But I masked off the leather and held a drop cloth over the steering wheel hub. I was able to keep the mess to a minimum.

I'm letting it cure overnight. I'll let everyone know how it worked.

I straight up super glued mine. Wasn't nearly as messy as I thought it would be. It has been holding for a few years in temperatures from -40 all the way to 120.

Wheel bearing... Happy New year!
yup I'm pretty sure I used all those tools(including the sledge). Actually physically easier than the oil pressure switch I did recently.

Had no left over parts so that's a success!

I had air tools on my Xmas list... I didn't get any.

This guy on YouTube had the best "how to" I could find. only thing I did differently was remove the caliper as a whole, no reason to disassemble it unless you are doing brakes at the same time.

Not today, but last night I was walking out of Walmart and used the remote start when about halfway to the Denali. When I got closer there was a cart pusher worker going by me and asked what I had in that thing! I guess he heard it start up and it does have a pretty good/loud growl to the exhaust note, I can usually hear it start from across a lot.

I told him 6.2 liter

Looked at her and did the bi-weekly auto start. These realized inhave an exhaust leak. I guess I'll be ordering a band clamp. Exhaust Hanger rusted/ripped off.

Same here. I think the GM 6.2L is one of the best sounding stock exhausts on the planet. Love mine every time I start it.
