Slick 60's

i now believe that the steering column and steering wheel in my 1966 f -100 . is from a 1976 ford, if thats the case, will the original steering wheel fit that column ?

Kind of! Yeah, I know, real helpful! LOL Yes it will bolt on but the horn won't fit on due to the end of the shaft being longer. Shorten the top of the steering shaft and it will work. The benefit to the early to mid 70's columns is the hazard switch is in the column and only requires one extra wire to hook up. Hawkrod

someone once told me. and i have yet to verify it. that the columns after 75 the tss collar got slightly larger. becuase the steering wheels on the 76 and newer were slightly larger. not like the 78 and newer wheels were. maybe the guy didnt know what he was talking about because i have never seen a difference until 78
