1975/77 Cruise Control Switch / Turn Signal Switch / Steering Wheel
Steering wheel (D5TZ3600A), cruise control switch (D5TZ9C888A) and turn signal switch (D5TZ13341B).
None of these parts fit 1978 and later.
The steering wheel & turn signal switch are next to impossible to find new.
I did find 3 NOS (New, Old Stock) cruise control switches, in case anyone's interested.

Can you post links or item #s? How are you searching there? All I can find is a transducer assembly for 77-79 trucks.

If you have a 1977, as your signature sez, the cruise control steering wheel, signal switch and related parts were only on 1975/77's.
1978/79's have different steering columns, use different steering wheels and cruise control related parts.

Why are you searching 77/79's?

I didn't say I was going to buy one -- I just wanted to see what he was talking about and what was out there.

Thanks, Ben. I was just wondering how you were searching. I have tried searching for trucks and parts under 'ford', '1973, 1974, ....' and '73,74,75...' with limited success. I haven't found a search method yet on e-bay to search for all 6 years of our trucks, since everyone uses a different convention to identify years, if they identify them at all.

Dennis Carpenter has reproduced this:
D4TZ-3600-A .. Steering Wheel / Fits 1971/77 F100/350, 1975/77 Econoline, 1974/77 Bronco, all WITHOUT Cruise Control.
According to Dennis Carpenters website, he does not have D5TZ-3600-A .. Steering Wheel that was only was used with Cruise Control.
No Ford dealer, obsolete parts dealer, or reproducer of obsolete parts has D5TZ-3600-A.
Dennis Carpenter has also reproduced this: D4TZ-13A805-A .. Horn Pad-Black Vinyl-Use WITHOUT Cruise Control.
Dennis Carpenter does not have D5TZ-13A805-B .. the Horn Pad that was only used with Cruise Control.
No one else has this horn pad, either.
Peeps have been looking for these parts for years. I've been searching for them for years on obsolete parts websites and the in-house Ford dealer parts locator system.
Never found any of these 1975/77 Cruise Control only parts new, reproduction, whatever.
