steering column from econoline
Does anybody know if the steering column from a late 70s early 80s econoline van fits into a 1975 F250 4x4? other than changing the rag joint to steering box shaft, what else is necessary? Looking to do this tranplant for the factory sport steering wheel. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the replies, the steering wheel base is bigger around than the stock wheel, so to make it look factory I was wanting to use the whole column, does anyone know if the trim ring that holds the signal switch can be changed over to fit the larger diameter wheel

I would suspect the collar to have a different part number since the base of the van wheel is bigger but his question is will the inner part of the base bolt on to a p/u column. Sorry I don't know the answer but if you the van wheel already can't you get the rest of the column and take the collar from it?

If it is the steering wheel mounting that is the concern.
It won't work.
The shaft is the main part of the column that is Length Sensitive, It is all one piece from the steering wheel mounting to the rag joint attachment.
