And fits: 1973 Bronco from serial number S20,001 & 1974/79 Bronco.

jb1978f150: Page 48: 1973/77 F100/250 2WD / 25 = 1973/77 F100/250 2WD

4WD is not the same and the tilt wheel feature was introduced in 1978.

ManfredvonRichthofen: Where are all the parts located in the column that make up the entire tilt wheel mechanism?

C6: Between the upper flange and the shift collar, so anything below the shift collar has nothing to do with the tilt wheel.

Notice the parts catalog applications Mike & I listed. Neither makes any mention of with or without tilt wheel...so the part fits both.

Looks like a bunch of parts under the hood, covered with brake fluid and oil, right?

Sorry I had to, since the OP got his answer already.

Yea I was all about the leaf too. lol

Through work I have access to a proprietary parts locator. Post what you're looking for and I'll see if I can locate the parts for you.
