Hello looking for the C6 linkage as shown below as well as a kickdown rod and required hardware for carb end and tranny end. Going into a 79 F-150. Thanks

Hello change of plans. Now looking for the C6 brackets for a dent side truck with an FE if anyone has them. If not was going to look at the Lokar setup with part number 491aca1801. Looks like it might work but may not have enough throw to get into 1st. Anyone have experience with this kit? Thanks.

Looks like you have about everything for column shift, just lacking kick down linkage to carburetor?

Still doing the '79 but with a FE now? .

The truck is a 73 that someone starting converting to 79 steering components. It has a hokey sloppy ratchet shifter and I am trying to correct this with the auto column. It came with a 390 and I had a line on a 78/79 460 but that fell through so I am continuing with the 390. I have the kickdown and pieces in the above pic but the rotating bracket (bell crank?) does not fit on the FE C6 so still need everything between the column and tranny. Thanks.
