steering column question
Hey guys
I have a 73 steering column with a rag joint end, can I use this in my 75, and can I remove the rag joint and go with my 75 double universal??
I needed to replace the 75 column, the top bearing is trashed and I screwed up the steering wheel spline.

I did the conversion, it has been awhile, I swapped the steering column shaft, from steering column bottom end to steering gear box. I found a steering column shaft, that would slide in or out, at the center of shaft. Don't remember what year of Ford Truck.

Remove cover for steering wheel, and remove nut at shaft.
Use puller to remove steering wheel.
Remove turn signal lever.
Remove three screws for turn signal switch and pull the switch away from column.
Should be some screws holding the bearing and bushing or a clip. http://broncograveyard.com/bronco/i-27060_column_bearing__upper.htm
