Steering column cab seal

Had to unfortunately swap the steering column out in my recently acquired 77 f100 for a spare I had out of a 74. Everything bolted and plugged in just fine save for the seal on the column where it meets the firewall.

My question is there an easy way of swapping this mount/seal out? I haven't experimented with anything yet so I'm not sure.

Definitely could use a little advice here as I'd like to get this buttoned up soon so the cab isn't exposed to potential critters for too long.

Yep, either cut it or pull the column back out and change it.

Looks like I'll be cutting one and installing the proper one off the old column for now. The one from the 74 is fine save for this difference so that's what I'll use.

Thanks!
