Oh wow, thank you! You are giving me hope that it’s not to much work! And now I know what I have to do!

Has Nothing to do with Jeep - question about ford:
Cool that you have been a ford mechanic because I also bought a ford f100 from 1973 (picture attached)
Du you know what could be wrong when all my gauges do not work? But the cluster lights work… only the gauges do not work.
I’ve replaced the circuit and the wires at the plug have power. The gauges work when I connect them to a 1,5 volt battery…
Is it okay if I remember you and maybe ask you in the future if I have some ford issues ?

Also a big thank you for your research on eBay! Hope I don’t need that but nice to have a chance to buy it!
Thank you! Have a nice day!

If the snap ring or retainer just popped out of the groove it should be on the shaft , all the parts should be on the shaft unless someone had it apart and didn’t put things back correctly.
I was a Ford mechanic for years and have done hundreds of columns. The way they were put together was lower bearing, then a race , spring and then a large snap ring would hold the spring in place on a groove in the shaft. If all the parts are there you may be able to remove the lower shaft and reinstall the parts with the column in the vehicle. You may need someone to push the steering wheel down while installing the snap ring. Jeep only show the complete column as an assembly but I did find some on eBay
