[IDIoit]

Doubting freakin Thomas now eh....thanks for vote of confidence

The one I pulled out of the 86 bronco defiantly has 2 connectors.
Thought all bull nose were same.
Only truck of those years I've taken apart
Anyways, columns are VERY easy

isnt there 2 connectors?

a half round for turnsignal switches and then the one on the box.

they are the same as a brick nose.

hardest part is finding the 16" long extension and a 10 mm socket.

just checked there are 2 connectors. the larger one the rod slips into for the lock cylinder and the roundish connector for the upper column controls.
