accelerator pedal/assembly broke
Hi all
I was driving the other day and my pedal fell to the floor. I found that the bracket which allows the pedal to pivot/bolts the metal rod to the inside of the firewall had broke (this is the bracket which has the accelerator rod run through had broke)
Does anyone know what replacement options I would have for this?

Gees those gas pedal brackets seem to be breaking a lot lately.
I think your like #3 since the first of the yr. now..
I think one guy said he found one for like 50 bucks at Flashback F100's - Home
But then found one locally for 10-$15 bucks or something like that.
The 66 ford trucks had a cable but guess it did not hold up and 67 up all had some type of rod linkage..

It can be replaced with one from a dentside. They use a cable to the carb instead of the linkage that the bumps use, Seems to work a little better.I have done this on a couple trucks. I think that I may have one of the originals somewhere but since I don't know how close you are to me I don't know if it would be worthwhile for me to go look for it.

I don't see any way of replacing those plastic bushing tho.
I guess a guy could rig up some type of replacement if he had no other means of getting one from the PnP..
I made my weekly PnP rounds today and came across two bumps checked the throttle linkage thinking maybe I should get a spare one for just safe keeping. One was not much good & checked #2 truck and found one in great condition so got that as mind has been changed out a few time when I find one better then my old one..

The replacement part was that the whole accelerator pedal/rod and the pot metal bracket all one piece? I modified my stock pedal to match my engine swap and it didn't look like it could be replaced without cutting the rod and sliding the bracket off. Or straightening the pedal rod. I think it was my charger that has a similar setup. But that one I could slide the bushing out and it gave enough of a hole opening to allow me to slide the bracket around the rod and slide it off and replace the bushings.

Oh one thing I've found is the length of the accelerator rod end that goes through the fire wall and hooks up to the carb linkage. Some are different lengths. As the first time, I replaced mind with one from PnP.
So make sure you get one the same length as yours is.

I think that might have been one for a 300 Ig Rich. You prolly pulled one from a truck where the motor was already yanked.
