Automatic kickdown rod needed

I am installing a 460/c-6 combo in my 1960 F100 and I am in need of the kickdown rod for the transmission. If anyone has one for a resonable price let me know. Thank you.

Tony -

I have a 351C and FMX tranny combo. Like you, I was unable to find a kick-down rod in decent shape and price. I used the Lokar cable system.

I don't have any old time junk yards around my area. If you do, try there first. It would take about 10 minutes to remove one and its hardware.

A kickdown rod looks like a simple thing but dang

Good luck
