Need help locating part

I have searched everywhere and can not find a turn signal switch for my 1976 F-250 anywhere. The stops for the cam are broken which would be fine except it only allows one brake light or the other to light unless it is in exactly the right spot, its so touchy that without someone staring at the brake light and me moving the turn signal lever ever so slightly for several minutes I can't get it in the right position. The engine on our POS car died and i really need to get this thing inspected!

I should add it is the switch for the 250 with Auto trans, no tilt, and with cruise control.

I got one from ford a few years ago (?6?). They might still carry it. The one for cruise equipped trucks is different than non-cruise.

When you do go to replace it, the plastic connector disassembles and goes onto the new harness. Use one or two of the old wires to pull one or two string up the column to pull the new wires down the column. I use a string more than 2X as long as the column with a slip knot in the middle. Then pull on the bottom of the string to install a wire then pull the same string back up for the next wire.

Thanks for the welcome.

I have tried both the Ford dealers and the link you provided, still no luck.

I read about the string trick in one of the articles, very good idea, thanks.

RRaider the part number you ar looking for is D5TZ-13341-B turn indicator fits 1975-1977 F150-F350 A/T-w/speed control. If this sounds like what you need. Call Green sales out of Cincinnati OH. 800-543-4959 my computer shows they have 4 in stock.Good luck Rory

I recently bought a new turn signal switch for my 74 at my local Ford dealer. NAPA had a rebuilt kit (74) for it that included the cam.
