Default How do you remove a steering wheel lock pin.

Does anyone have a write-up on how to remove a steering wheel lock pin for a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Classic? I am trying to move to key-less and this will hold me up, and any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

These jeeps are already easy to steal and are on the top 10 most stolen cars in the last few years.Thats why you won't find no write ups or info on it.

You could hide a magnetic kill switch in the kick panel.

He wants to remove the steering column locking mechanism so he don't have to unlock it with a key.
