1977 Tilt column

[ngsd]

I think I know the answer but wanted to validate it. I looked a 77 Bronco that has the tilt column in the Turn Signal lever. Was there a tilt from the factory or is this something put in from another?

67-68 mustang had tilt with one lever

That was kind of what I was thinking. Need to look at how this was installed.

Not factory, likely a later model like the 1978 and up column.

I have a '78 Bronco column and it is different in many ways. The collar is a much larger diameter with a large diameter sleeve over the column. I don't have any use for tilt, but remember a separate lever to function the tilt. The early Mustang column and collar are closer to EB style.

Cougars/mustangs 67-69 tilt/tilt away option turn lever for normal tilt up down ,,and when key is out and door is opened then it will tilt up at 45 degree over to passenger side ,,,my 69 cougar has it ..

If it had a separate lever for tilt you are remembering a Chevy...


78 Bronco's tilt was controlled by the turn signal lever.

Squeezer, you're correct. I remembered incorrectly. I do remember the tilt function was loose on the columns I saw.
