Shift Linkages and Bolts

I have a 1970 F-100, and have recently dove in to the power steering mod. The column came out of a 1977 F-100 and it is a 3-spd column shift and I have found some linkages that would work. However, the way that the linkages connect are very different as one is threaded (my original ones) and the others have a slot for a special bolt to go through and connect to the transmission. I am currently on a hunt to find that special bolt and see if it will connect to my transmission. Thank You in advance!

Special bolt that looks like # 7B415 by chance? C clip on one side and a nut on the the other?

I would think that the C clip can be from the auto parts store, maybe the funny bolt from the dealership?

These will work if it's what you need. Guy wants a lot of money but they are hard to find.
