Wondering if the F100 53-36 mast jacket would fit on F1 steering gear to get use of turn signal switch?

I believe they are all 1 1/2 " tube for many years. It would fit is my guess. I have columns in the barn, can check tomorrow if no one else has a definite.

The length may be different but I can't compare them. The steering wheel is different so it may have to be considered as well. I figure it may ba opposite of a conversion I did changing a 1931 steering column into a 1929 type. It's likely doable but it may take some enginuity.
