Yes...
The shaft has a tapered end and the nut presses it on tight.
A puller makes it easy.
Got a harmonic bal puller? that will work.

Did you have to pry out the small button in the middle to get to the nut, or does the whole top piece come off? I need to pull the wheel on my wife's '67 but its not obvious how to remove the cover without breaking something

On a 67 just turn the center pad counterclockwise to access the nut. Might be a good idea to disconnect the negative battery cable first.

You need a puller to pull the old steering wheeloff its not a easy task with out it. USe a hormonic balencer remover to pull it out.
