Hope you had a happy B-day. Keep on going I'm only a few years behind you.

The hardest part of rebuilding the steering column is removing the wiring pins for the turn signal switch and horn from the two plastic connectors. Just make sure that you mark the location of the wire pins.

Chuck, June 11 sounds good but what are you going to do on your Birthday this year?

Are you sure that the wiper motor is in the park position ? Some wiper motors donot have a park position.

Did it bolt right up or did you have to make modifications to the pushrod to make it fit correctly ?

The '77/79 brackets are different than the '65/72 brackets, I never tried the '73/76 brackets.

You might want to try a Mustang parts supply house. The early Mustangs pivot arm and connecting rods are similar to ours.

Dual reservoir Master with Booster This is a common upgrade that I started doing back in the early 80s. The best way I found was to use a master cylinder or a booster with master cylinder from a '67 F100/250, it bolts right in place, no modification needed. If using a booster you will need a set of ...

DELAWHERE ???? Is that somewhere on the right coast buried under the snow ????

You will need to get some one near Scranton, PA area. Try posting this under the Mid Atlantic Area.

Sofla64, on the turn signal switch there is a plastic post that contains a spring/brush assembly that touches the back of the steering wheel. Then there is a second spring/brush assembly that fits into the steering wheel (your green arrow) that touches the back of the horn ring. Both spring/brush as...

I have one and it works great. A good deal too at $35 compared to the other brands at $100 plus.

The standard IP has a left and a right green turn signal indicator and a red high beam indicator. The custom cab IP has a single green turn signal indicator and a red high beam indicator. If you want to have a left green turn signal indicator and a separate right green turn signal indicator then jus...

Carpenters had some but I am not sure if it was a repop or NOS.

Greg, that looks awful, and I was hoping to see your truck at Spring Splash this year. Before you make any repairs check out the cab floor around the rear cab mounts it may have buckled the floor. Check the frame also, better to find out now before the restoration begins.

Use a master cylinder from a 67 F100, F250. It will bolt right in without any modification needed. The 68 and later trucks have the longer push rod.

There are no stops on the steering box. Check on the back side of the 'I' beam, some have a bolt that hits the spindle where the tie rod connects, that would be your stop.

It appears that you have a stock heater unit with an A/C unit installed where the flexable fresh air duct is usually at.

So, do you glow in the dark now ?

Lightshow, this is probably the second easiest upgrade, the first being power disc brakes. A '70 - '79 PS steering column, with the PS firewall support bracket - these are needed because the PS gearbox is about 2 inches shorter than the manual gearbox. . The PS gearbox is about two inches longer th...
