throttle linkage - HElP!!!
I have looked everywhere and I just can't find any throttle linkage, my linkage right now is bent, so im only getting about half throttle. I bent it back once already, but it bent back, and if I keep bending it back it's just getting weaker.
So if anyone knows where I can get one, PLEASE HELP!!!!!

First, welcome to FTE! The official greeter will be along shortly. Now, in order for us to help you, we need information. I see you've got a '67 F100, but what engine/carb is under the hood? If you could, maybe add a picture of the linkage that needs replaced? I'd be willing to bet that some of us would have the part you need.
Last time I needed a part, I hit the local salvage yard for a few hours of fun. :-) Let us know what you need!

Or, if you're tired of the mechanical linkage it's not real difficult to upgrade to a cable system. I used the whole assembly along with the loud pedal out of a '75 Lincoln Mark V on mine, works great!!!! Oh yeah, welcome to FTE, lots of truck freaks hanging out here!!!!!

Welcome to FTE
A picture as the above member stated in post #2 would be a great help, because both the 6 and 8 cylinder F100's have 5 different rods, 5 clips, 4 brackets, several springs and a bellcrank.

ok, i've uploaded 2 pics of the linkage.
I have a 3-spd manual. What does that have to do with the throttle linkage though?

2 Rods to Firewall~Upper Rod = D0TZ-9D702-A / Lower Rod = C7TZ-9A702-B
Short Rod nearest left valve cover = C6TZ-9772-A
Long Rod adjacent to carb = Rod is not shown in acc linkage picture. Note: C7TZ-9A702-C is nearly identical, and might be an omission in the parts book pics/text for F100/350. It's listed for and shown under = 1965/72 F500/600.
These parts are the same/similar to std trans applications: 1965/72 FE engines

ok so go get some all thread and a couple of ball connectors ditch the whole pivot setup and connect the bellcrank straight to the carb. put a ball stud on the carb and one on the bell crank get a piece of all thread long enough shape it th way you need it and clip it in.
