In this video tutorial, you can see how to replace the steering wheel on a Jeep Cherokee. The first step is to prepare all the necessary tools: a 3/8 ratchet, an extension, a 16 mm socket, a 39/16 mm socket, another 7/8 socket, an 8 mm extension, and a steering wheel puller. To remove the old steering wheel, use a socket with an extension and an 8 mm nut. The next step is to remove the two screws. Now, disconnect the airbag, which is connected by two wires. Using the ratchet with a 16 mm socket, unscrew the central nut of the steering wheel. Now use the puller to remove the two screws of the steering wheel.
