I am not sure if it will fit or not being from a 97 model, but anything from a 1992-1996 should interchange.

Welcome to FTE!

Why are you saying the column is bad?

If the bearings are bad, keep in mind they can be replaced.

Hope this helps.

hi and that was my first route replacing the bearings but the owner before me ran it so long that it wore the shaft and there is way to much slack even with new bearings and they dont last long

If your truck is a 96 the column will fit from a F-150 or bronco up to 96 only and if its from a 250 or 350 97 is the last year
