Dug, caseyc probably has the answer for you. The special tools that are needed aren't very special. The (I assume U have tilt) pivots are easily pulled out w/a #10 or #12X 32 machine screw and a small visegrip locked to them. The actual pullers are @$30. Otherwise it's not a terrible job. Just a lot of finessing w/the plastic crap around the column. The white lube Ford used gets sticky after time so a little penetrating oil will make the new one last for a long time. Have fun getting the actuator timed...I always have to do it twice. Good thing is that you don't have to put it all the way together to find out if it works. The piece that you are after goes over the actuator rod and links to the key switch. I can now do them in @1.5hrs...the 1st one took 4hrs just to ballpark it for you. Good luck, hope this helps. Fred
