i was wondering if anyone has converted to tilt steering. as you guys know the stangs with air bag dont come with tilt steering. i was wondering if i got a tilt steering colum from a 89 would it be possible to convert it to my air bag steering wheel?

has this been done before, any advice ?

You can convert the whole column over and ditch the airbag....but that might come with some insurance issues.

I know there was at least one guy over on corral.net that replaced his with a tilt sn95, steering wheel and all.

ok so the 89 column didnt work, i need one with the air bag. what other cars have the air bag type with tilt steering. i know the taurus has the same steering wheel and tilt, but are the wiring harness the same as mustangs. and does the sn59's have the same harness as the fox stangs?

I'd like to convert my 91GT to tilt as well.

Anyone have more info on this conversion ?
