Sticking Throttle (Calling out Number Dummy or Million)

On my 78 where the throttle pedal goes through the firewall it's all loose and binds up. Does ford make a replacement bushing set for the gas pedal? I see where it attaches to the firewall with 3 bolts. Is there a bushing inside there that is replacable? Or, am I reduced to going to the JY and finding another gas pedal? It is not my linkage or throttle return springs. It's a 302 with a 1406 Edel carb on it. The linkage rod was replaced with 1/4" allthread with rod ends. I have a Lokar kickdown cable on it and I am using their throttle return springs. All of that stuff works, it seems that the binding is in the pedal itself. Any and all answers are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I dont believe the bushing is replaceable. I believe you have to replace the whole thing. Then again I am not 100 percent sure.
