The guy I bought my truck from converted It to floor shifting but left the old steering column, I want to install a 4spd steering column so that It does not have a shifter or any thing of the sort. Will it just bold in and how do I take the old one out and put the new one in?? Thanx




1970 Ford F100 Custom
302 3spd on floor
dual exhaust

Should be a direct swap. Make sure you get a column with the same components under the hodd as you have now. i.e. Power or nonpower steer, same type steering box, and so on.

Joe, You might find a coller for your column used in a floor shift truck and not have to swap, just a thought.
