Anyone using a late model Ford column

I am using a tilt steering column from a 86 squire in my 55 effie. It was a little short but with some forkilft bearings and some wheat/barley engineering, I have it mounted with the volare and steering great on stands. I have a EZ wiring kit and it has the wiring reference for the column. I plan on a ididit when the budget allows but I would like to use what I got. Has anyone wired in a column from the mid 80's and have any suggestions. I do appreciate all the help I have recieved so far from everyone here. Thanks guys.

It seems like this was discussed in some detail about six months ago. Have you tried the forum search engine? Lots of good stuff in the old threads. Course, you have to wade through the bu!! crap to get to it.

It seems to me that if you can find a schematic for the car that the column came out of it should be fairly easy to wire it up

Good luck with it
