Hello, could you tell me where this bracket is attached to which the brake pedal return spring is attached? If you have a photo, I don't have this bracket, thank you in advance !
I have never known anything, car or truck, to have a return spring on the brake pedal.
Now the clutch pedal is a whole different story as both cars & trucks that I have had that were manual transmission had what is called a "over center spring".
Both of my 81 F100's have over center spring as dose my 70 AMC Javelin.
You sure that is not the clutch pedal? Hard to tell in your picture what pedal that is. I also dont see any line(s) from pedal to the brake master rod to show it is the brake pedal.

Well learned something new today
I dont remember being under the dash of my 63 F350 tow truck when I had it back in the early 80's
Do you have the spring?
You say no bracket but if you have the spring you must be able to tell where the bracket may go.
I am thinking maybe bolts to the bottom of the dash up on top of the bottom lip so not to be hit by your leg.
Maybe the same bolt that holds the pedal bracket *01500 to the dash?
Or you wwill have to see if someone can post a picture

You are not seeing the full picture - or at least you are not sharing the full picture. These drawings often represent many series of vehicles. This drawing covers F100/250 as well as B500/750 and F350/700 and F750 Model 84. B is for School Bus and the others are larger trucks in the F series so would not apply to your truck. That bracket *2A296 is for the other trucks. The other way using 2A189 as the connection point for the spring 9737 is for F100/250. So that should remove any concerns, I hope. The character ◂ is the clue. Now, I'm not giving the whole story, but I don't want to muddy the waters beyond that.
Oh dear, I absolutely hadn't seen this triangle and the information that refers to it... now it remains to be seen where and how the 2A189 is attached.
I've never been to the United States; the closest I've been is Quebec, where my wife's sister lives. I imagine the vast American expanses, with breathtaking landscapes and genuine American values.
I always say that France isn't Paris because everyone has gone crazy in those big cities, but France outside of the metropolitan areas is magnificent, and you meet truly welcoming people if you know how to be down-to-earth.
Took a day trip to Versailles and met this most charming older woman who came to the gardens behind the chateaux to feed a cat that seemed to live in the gardens.
We also did get up North to Mont-Saint-Michel and the Burgundy region. Lots of people stewing apple cider in large caldrons in their front yards. That was fascinating to see.
For others - In prehistoric times, the mount was part of the mainland. As sea levels rose and erosion reshaped the coast, it became a rocky outcrop surrounded by tidal flats. Mont-Saint-Michel was much farther from the ocean when it was first built - at least in terms of tidal reach and shoreline geography. During the Middle Ages, pilgrims had to cross up to 7 kilometers (4.3 miles) of tidal water and mud to reach the island. That’s significantly farther than today’s ~1 km distance from the mainland. The Couesnon River, which flows near the mount, shifted course over centuries, influencing how close the tides came and how sediment built up around the island.
The construction of a causeway in the 19th century further altered tidal flow, causing sandbanks to rise and making the island less isolated at high tide. The tidal flats are dangerous.
Tide rises faster than a galloping horse—up to 14 meters in vertical change, with horizontal movement covering kilometers in minutes.
Quicksand pockets form unpredictably, especially near river channels and salt marsh edges.
Fog and flat terrain can disorient walkers, making it hard to find safe paths back.
Exactly right. Often the spring would break after years of use and once it does then the clip could fall out onto the floor. A person might not even realize it was there or where it went.

Obsolete and no NOS available that I can find.
So, the rest of the story is that larger trucks used both setups - in essence two return springs. At least in theory.
