I am not surprised. Steering components are built extra beefy for safety reasons. What other purpose does the steering lock serve other than theft? Towing on the front wheels?

After I got mine off, I found it had lot's of red locktite on it. Next time I do one I will use heat to soften the loctite. Should make the job much easier.
