  • hello, I can't thank you enough for this vid....I do have one question...I started taking some of the trim off to take a closer look to see if I want to attempt this repair. How do you remove the key shroud? I am not sure if this is the correct term, but the black piece where the key goes in the ignition that holds the top trim piece on. I appreciate your help!!!!

  • @kbeorlegui

    The steering column trim cover is held in by Phillips screws from the bottom side up.

  • I enjoy watching all of your vids, glad that you as a Ford master tech post them. Really helps guys like me who frequently work on Fords but not in a dealer. I work in local county goverment where we have a large fleet of Ford trucks. I recently did a job very similar to this one except in my case the bushings were good but the shaft & inner plunger were broken in 2 pieces each. I now see that I wasted time removing the steering wheel & then the entire column assembly to do it as a bench job.

  • @srmastertech I wish I could tell you. The truck was purchased a couple of days later. Not too many 1997 12 valve cummins with 97k original. I wish I would have gotten around to the combination of parts I was planning to use to see if it improved the OE setup. I was going to use a 2010-2012 T-style (solid bar across like on fords) and pitman arm, a Borgeson steering gear box, steering shaft, and power steering pump with greater volume/PSI. Was hoping the better pump would make the hydroboost.

  • @bigclawn

    Your welcome, I'll send you my bill, lol!

  • @06dirtyblack

    Sorry, I don't have the part number. But I'm sure you got it by now, sorry I was late!

  • @Ironpuha
