Steering Column

NOTE: All fasteners are important in that they could affect the performance of vital parts and systems, or could result in major service expenses. They must be replaced with fasteners of the same part number if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during assembly to ensure proper functioning of these parts.

The structural part of the steering column is made of magnesium die castings. The steering column is attached to a support that is an integral part of the instrument panel. For F-Super Duty Motorhome Chassis Vehicles the steering column is attached to a steering column tube support structure. The lower attachments of the steering column are through a bracket that bends during collapse. The upper attachments are through plastic shear modules that separate from the main casting during collapse. A clip and washer are attached to the shear modules to reduce steering column tube shake and to assist in installation of the steering column to the beam.

A unique shifter mechanism has been installed on the steering column. It has the transmission shift selector position insert (7A216) located away from the shift control selector lever and interacts with the shift control selector lever through a linkage system. This system provides a positive interlock with no adjustments required.
