'78 tilt column wiring help

O.K guys, I got the '78 tilt column in and all ready to go except for the wiring. I really need help on this one, I can't power it up and use a process of elimination since most of the rest of the wiring is not finished yet.
I took out the 3spd column shifted manual wheel in this '69 ranger and desperately need to know what goes to what in the '78 column. BTW this '78 column has 9 wires and the old '69 only has 7.
I'll wait till I get this one hammered out before I ask how to wire in this set of round guages from an f-600.
This project is truly never ending.
Thanks for any help
Greg

I've got that diagram, I'm missing some of the wires on the '69 side and one on the '78 side.
