1936 Ford parts interchange

[deuce lover]

Bumper brackets: Outer brackets should work on a pickup.Inner brackets 35,36 same.

Doors will not interchange unless modified.

Hood stops etc you noted are 36 pass car only as are the inner fenders.

Steering column interchanges with 35. Steering gear to me is junk .Replace with a 37-40.

Out of curiosity, what makes the later ones better?

1936 was worm and sector.
1937 was worm and roller.

It is possible that your so-called 1936 steering box had already been swapped out for a 1937, as the worm and roller's superiority is common knowledge.
