Neutral safety switch van wiring

Seems to be some confusion and don't think this has been addressed
1.First check faqs for remounting neutral safety switch on van column.

2.If you are going to mount column closer to dash than factory you may want to move the location up 1/2 - 3/4" to clear firewall as mounting closer will move switch closer to firewall.

the Neutral safety switch on van is usally different than original pickup tilt so you will have to do some mods if you want switch to operate properly

As you see in the pic the pickup switch has an L shaped setup for backup lights and van has 2 horizontal plugs.
If you are really lucky when you got the column you saved the 2 plugs and can just rewire the ends for the backup lights.
The neutral safety switch doesn''t require a new end
heres 2 different switches
