Ahhhhhhhhhhh I cant get my Steering Wheel Back Off

I took it off last weekend to do some checks got it off by putting my knees behind it and hitting the center with a hammer and it popped off no problems. But in putting it back on I was Rushed By The GF to go out and i put it back on not stright Total Bu**er and Now I cant get it back off to put it back on straight and i have hit it over and over with a hammer but no movment at all Grrrrr and i have knacked the nut from hitting it with the hammer that needs replacing.

Sorry No! But there's one here if you get stuck. Careful you don't burr over the end of the steering column when you're hitting it.

 Hi Craig,
            If i were you i would refrain from hitting the column with a HAMMER as i read on here somewhere that the column is made to colapse in an accident and could be damaged by heavy impacts :o.

 I'm sure someone on here can verify this in more detail.

    Hope this helps,
                          Pete :y.
