Horn Bar

I installed a 1976 three speed power steering column in my 66 240. The center of the steering wheel is in bad shape. I think it is called the horn bar by looking in Dearborn catalog. My question is what is the lastest models to us the same horn bar as the 76. Went to the pull a part today, could not find a decent horn bar until I looked at some early and mid eighties trucks, but don't know if they will fit. Looks like dearborn has them for $140.00 and 300.00 for the steering wheel, wonder how many of those they sell.

Dearborn? Do you mean Dearborn Classics? If so, their catalog is for car parts, the horn pads shown in that catalog were not used on trucks. Totally different.

You need this: D3TZ13A805A .. Horn Pad & Switch-Black Vinyl / Obsolete.

Fits: 1971/77 F100/350 / 1975/77 Econoline / 1974/77 Bronco all w/o Cruise Control.

Ford changed the steering wheel in 1978. While the pad used on 1978/79's and later years looks similar, it will not fit 1971/77's.

D3TZ13A805A = REPRODUCED by Dennis Carpenter. He has 175 of them available: 704-786-8139

Obsolete parts dealer Green Sales Co. (greensalescompany.com) has THREE.

EDIT: I just phoned Green Sales. The pads they have are Carpenter reproductions. Green's price is $100.00.

Green Sales: 800-543-4959.

Carpenter has also reproduced the steering wheel in black only: D4TZ3600A.

The wheel fits the same vehicles as the horn pad does. Used without cruise control.
