rebuilding front end and replacing steering column
I have a 97 f250 with a dana 60 front axle swap, i want to make sure i order the right parts to repuild the front end including all ball joints axle seals steering stabilizer etc. But i cant order vehicle specific i dont believe. I also have to replace my steering column at the same time and was wondering if anyone knew of a good place to get one and does it come with a steering shaft also? After all this is done i intend on making it a fummins

Most people used older Ford Dana 60's, as the frame rails where the same width, so they were pretty much a direct bolt in. But that wasn't always true... Other indicators would be if it has ball joints or king pins, the numbers off bearings and seals, etc.
I have no idea on steering columns. I have just used OBS tilt columns and those are the limits to my experience on those.
