63 steering column help

Can anyone tell me where these wave washers go? I thought I had taken pics of everything when we took it apart but somehow missed these and cant remember where they go.

Thanks Numberdummy but my steering column doesn’t look like that. The 63 doesn’t have a rag joint and that column has thrust washers not the wave spring washers. I think that the washers do go by the shift forks but have been trying to confirm that.

This is a picture out of a 63 parts manual that does show wave washers but my column doesn’t look like this either. My column is correct for my truck but this picture seems to be for an earlier truck and your picture for a later truck. I have not been able to find a picture that shows exactly what a 63 is suppose to be.

Rag joint introduced in 1965 F100/250 2WD

Pic is from the 1957/63 catalog that was printed in 1970.

Originally this catalog covered 1957/69, but in 1970, Ford removed the 1957/63 pages, put them into bound paper catalogs...but left the 1965/69 pic in place.

351560-S7 .. Spring Washer - Gear Shift Selector Levers - 7/8" / Obsolete

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 669 = 800-543-4959.
