Pulling steering wheel on a '97 F53

Can I pull the steering wheel and reposition it on a '97 F53?

I hear stories that pre 1999 F53's = NO

What's the truth?

On my 96, Bear Alignment loosened the steering box and moved it either right or left to center the wheel. Much easier than pulling the wheel.
