Steering column swap

I have an 82 fulls size bronco that has some column issues. Someone lost the ignition key and tore the column apart trying to get it started.

Due to the amount of damage, I am just changing the entire column. I have a column from what appears to be an 87-91 truck in good shape. Both are autos and tilts. Does anyone know if the columns are interchangeable, wiring, etc..?

Thanks for the help, this site has helped me out many times.

The later fuel injection wiring at the ignition switch is a little different. You can try and see if your old ignition switch will bolt on to the newer column. I am not sure about the other wiring and if it will plug in.
