This retrofit column is designed to fit your Ford Truck and does NOT require modification to your original vehicle to install. This GM Style column features a GM top shaft and a 3 7/8" Wiring Plug. Pre-welded underdash mounts are included with all 1965-66 columns and are designed to fit your application. Use an ididit installation kit to install your new steering column in place of the old. Using an adaptor, add an aftermarket steering wheel and the gripping surface of the new wheel will be in the same location as the original. The shift pattern on these columns allow you to use either a 3 or 4-speed automatic transmission. The 1965-66 column shift column comes complete with a neutral safety switch. A gear shift indicator is an option, but not included. A shift linkage (new or original) is required for installation and will attach to the lower shift arm provided on the column.
1965-79 Ford Half-Ton Truck: A new rag joint is required to install. This column comes complete with a pre-welded underdash mount that will match the original bolt pattern. A Female End Plug which connects with the ididit wiring plug is also included. The wires will simply be matched by function rather than color.
For 1965-66 columns: Please note that the Bendix box was frequently used as a replacement for the Saginaw box. If not using the original steering box, a shorter length column may be required. Call for details.
Because the GM Style column uses the standard GM wiring harness, dimmer/wiper and cruise control options CAN be added to the column.
Please Note: A stock Ford steering wheel WILL NOT bolt to the ididit GM Style Ford column.
