Hi
I just bought a 94 F150 that had been stolen and recovered. The ignition cylinder is gone and i have to start it with a screw driver. I am going to replace the cylinder with a new one but i think i need to swap what it fits into also, what is this called? the housing?
Thanks

 

Best to get a junkyard column.

 

Hi
You mean the whole thing, would that be easier than replacing the upper housing?. I think this is all i need.

 

If it was me, I would get a junkyard column.

 

It would be easier to replace the whole column

 

How hard is it to replace the whole column, anyone got instructions/manual

Thanks

 

The 150 or so the column will run you is worth it in saved time.

 

Not hard undo a coiple plugs take out a couple bolts and remove the shaft. It probly wont even cost more than $100

 

Hi
I think the column is the way too go. ebay prices are all over the place, looks like about $160 is the cheapest. not bad considering the truck was discounted because of the damage. bought it for $1300 103000 miles, straight 6.
Thanks

 

I had one i sold for $50. Jy or craigslist is the way to go
