It's getting time to redo my steering setup and I've been researching tilt columns and straight columns from this company and that. Trying to piece together which way I should go.<br><br>What are all the Bronco Gods running and how do you like it. Column with or without tilt? Which Company? Slipshafts? Vibration Dampers? Etc.<br><br>Thanks all!

I have an Ididit column in my 1956 F100. Tilt, chrome, very nice column. I plan on getting a tilt one for my bronco as well but with a slipshaft and probably just plain steel so I can paint it any color I want. The slip shaft is needed because otherwise the shaft would be solid with no play which would tear up the ujoints and box or column.

I too have a 79 Van Tilt column. Cheap and easy to install. Just replace the mounting bracket with your bronco bracket, cut the shaft and add a flaming river set-up. If you have a 75-77 bronco the wiring plug is even the same. <br>Can send some picks of the install if you want to see it.<br>or e-mail me with questions.<br><br>Galen <br>galenwea@attbi.com
