85FC31 Steering column

[James]

First of all I would like to express my deepest sympathies to the
family of Jim Scoggins. Anytime a fellow "birder" passes, the entire
community feels the loss.

I have a 1985 FC31 Wanderlodge and I have finally found an 18"
steering wheel to replace the original 22" wheel (which I am willing
to sell if anyone is interested). However, I need to unbolt the
steeing wheel hub and rotate it 180' to line up with the new wheel's
holes.

Can anyone tell me if the nut is regular or reverse threads since it
is on very tightly (a good thing) and if there are any tricks of the
trade I should know before I change the wheel out. Any and all advice
is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
JR Torrico
