Hi,
Installed a f-100 modified steering box for the model A's, in my 1930 model Pickup, and need to know how much of the light switch rod (by inches) sticks out the end. As the rod I have is to short to hook the spring and switch spider on.
Thank you Mike

Not sure as it's installed in the pickup and would have to remove the steering column from pickup to pull it out to check the length. But I'm sure I have to remove in time to make right.

The rod stick out 1 1/4" from the plate that bolts on the end of the steering box to hold the bail,
