so some lowlife decides he is going to try to steal my Bronco last night from directly in front of Autozone. We walk out and he is hacking into the column. We convinced him it wasn't such a good idea and sent him on his way...

Unfortunately my ignition is trashed, my column is all screwed up, the shift indicator is broken,...

I am planning on customizing the interior and have found Ididit columns online. My concern is that they all seem to be catered towards classic GM's. Has anyone ever done one of these swaps? Would it simply be a matter of splicing the Ford wiring harness in? What about concerns about clearances? Any help would be greatly apprecated. I am pretty clueless on this unfortunately. I have cut and pasted the info below if it helps.

Thanks All,

Jack

that sucks...but personally,

I woulda given him a Texas-Sized AS* Whoopin!! Then called the PD.

But atleast you still got your ride.....

 

Shoot to kill. You actually let the guy walk away?

 

hell... this guy tried to tow my truck the other day and i whooped his @$$... the truck was running i ran into the store for 1 min and it was already hooked up. he wanted 40 bucks to put it down...

 

I said we convinced him it was a bad idea,... I am pretty convincing. No need to call the cops when all was said and done. He will have a hell of a time popping a lock in the future.

 

do you have a link to a pic of that column. it sounds pretty sweet. sounds a bit out of my price range tho

 

if you can tell me how, I will post a pic,... kinda new to this sorry...
