Thanks to the local Big hardware store, be sure to save your nylon bushings other wise it will rattle.

There are THREE different types for 1967/72 F100/350's. One type is for 240/300 only, then there are TWO different types for V8's.

See post #17.

My original bracket was cracked also. I let a few of them go on Ebay while I was trying to repair the original and then there were none available. I ended up buying one that was for a different engine size as my 352 V8 and bending it into the correct shape. Ebay has them periodically but if you can't find the correct one you can get any of the other ones and make it work. See the post below.

I just re-drilled the holes to match the original bolt pattern.

The latch needed to be persuaded apart then the arm of the pedal is crimped back in. This is the only other picture I could dig up. I hope it helps
