Since you didn't say, I assuming your truck is 2WD
C3DZ-3517-A .. Steering Column Bearing / Available from Ford.
If yours has the fixed flange at the bottom that bolts the the rag joint yes the tube has to be removed. But the lower tube itself may need a new bearing cup welded into it. I believe you can just remove the steering wheel and dash mounting bolts, blinker wires and clamp by fire wall that holds the tube. I may have forgot or missed some little things to loosen but it is the main stuff. hope this helps some..my 2cents
