I looked at the 1963/64 TSS on eBay and compared to my 1965/66 TSS and they do seem to be very similar. The main plastic piece as well as the cancelling cam look about identical. Hard for me to say they are identical without holding one in each hand, but there seems like a good chance it would mount fine.

thanks chad for the info !!! going to the salvage yard Friday and decode a few trucks and see if there are any 63-64 models and maybe snag a switch I'm going to take the 65 switch with me to see if they are the same mounting pattern if so I get lucky if not one of them ebay switches are going to be mine

The problem with the 1963/64 F100/250 C3TZ-13341-B TSS is, it's obsolete...no one has any NOS
Someone in this forum said he used C3OZ-13341-B TSS as a substitute.
This switch is 1963/64 Fairlane/Falcon/Comet, 1965 Mustang w/a generator.
1965's with an alternator, and 1966 Mustang is different: C5OZ-13341-B
C9TZ-13341-C (replaced C5TZ-13341-A & B) .. TSS / Obsolete/Reproduced, also available NOS
1965/66 F100/250 2WD / 1966 F100 4WD / 1967/68 F100/250 2WD/4WD & F350 / Ditto 1969 before serial number D96,001.

just curious, but why can't you use the '65 switch you have? I would assume I could wire it to work on any vehicle. It's obvious from your ifs that you're not going for stock.

You just need to connect the wires. The 64 and 65 switches work the same. I just took a quick look at a 64 an 65 wiring diagram and the wire colors appear to be the same.

a little update on the tss the 64 C3TZ-13341-B
worked in the 65 column no problems except the wires on it were they come out of the switch our on the wrong side of the stud where the rod screws in head to enlarge the hole in the plate so I could get the wires to switch sides and go down the column wire trap so they wouldn't rub on the rod and the color codes on the wires all matched up except on the road map it says one is red but there is no red wire but it was the last wire to plug in and the colors matched up with the plug
so maybe it will work thanks for all the help mike
