The wheel is easy to remove, but the upper bearing is another story entirely. There are two threaded holes in the wheel hub, I believe their 5/16”x18. Use them and a standard steering wheel puller. Here’s one from O’Reillys. https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/...omotive-truck-1954-chevrolet-truck?pos=0

You should pull the wheel to clean up the upper bearing contact surface. No need to remove the bearing if i shows continuity and the upper part of steering wheel shaft doesn’t have play.
