68 Steering Column Problems

I just got a 68 F100 and the steering column bushing is in terrible condition. Anyone have any solutions, or know where to buy this part.

I have a picture at this website please look at it.

68 Steering Column Problems

I bought mine at Oreillys. Autozone sells them too, they are just sitting out on the aisle that has various general car parts such a pcv valves. There is a part for 65-79 GM Ford and Chrysler and one that I think is for 74-79 Fords. Ive used both and both work, but I like the 65-79 hardware setup better. You will probably have to pull the steering box if the rag joint is the original one. Rivets will have to be ground off to remove it.
