neutral safety switch

Can someone tell me where the neutral safety switch is located on a 1978 Ford F250 4-wheel drive? Have looked on steering column cannot seem to locate it. Any help would be appreciated.

I assume you have an auto trans? Try looking on the shift linkage on the transmission. Its the only thing that will have wires on it.
