Anyone know where I can find this bracket and the little c clip thing that connects it to the rod that mounts the the manifold? Not sure what to call it. It’s for my 66 with auto trans and inline 6 cylinder. It’s the damnedest thing… one day it was there, and then one day it just wasn’t. Thanks
Base part number 7A394 is called the Downshift Control Lever. Sounds like you also need clip 353862-S and if both of those are missing then surely base number 7C484 bushing is also missing I'd guess. I've included pictures of the clip and bushing below for reference. Let me know if that 7A394 is what you need, and I'll tell you more.

Thanks, yes I believe those are exactly the parts I need. I took a picture of what is left now, to help show what exactly is missing:
I’ve been searching everywhere but still having trouble finding these parts for the kickdown for factory l6/C4 combo. I found a few places online that make reproductions for cars, but nothing for F100.
I thought I sent you this info in a private message. If you want the older original (car) part number Green Sales seems to have 2 of them listed in stock. The C9 (none found) and D3 (9) are newer versions of the same thing. May look slightly different but should function like original.

You did, and I reached out and left them my contact info but never heard back. I assumed they were no longer in business. If you have a phone number for them I will try calling. Thanks
Edit: just looked at the eBay link, I think that might be it. I’ll buy that one and see if it fits. Thanks!
Click on the links. One will take you to eBay where you can buy one this minute if you want. Otherwise, the second two links have a button for each company that says "Show Phone Number". If you do not see the button or if it doesn't come up with a phone number you may have other problems. I've probably bought 50 things from the companies listed since November so I can assure you they are all still in business.
seems this OP found his answer. And i dont mean to hijack the thread but do these kickdown linkages apply to all engines? or do they change in design?
I have a 429bb in my '66, with a c6 auto trans. Everything kickdown related is missing.
Vastly different designs from one engine to the next. My own 1966 F250 with 352 and MX-COM uses a kickdown rod on the driver's side that looks like this, but no lever at all like @Anatta needs for his 6 cylinder/C4 combo. The reason the 6 cylinder needs that is the carb is turned 90 degrees compared to the 352 carb so they have to account for that in the linkage for the kickdown. For a custom combination many people use the Lokar kits but I'd bet you could find a kickdown combo for a 429 and C6 since they would have originally had a setup for that. People often have noted that a change to carb from 2 bbl to 4 bbl have required changes to the kickdown. Carb spacers and other changes can also throw off the geometry.
