I don't think I've ever run a kickdown on a c6. They don't really need it-
The one on the Bronco will probably be different since there were revisions to the c6 in the 20years between those two trucks.

There are no 460/C6 kickdown rods listed for F100/350's prior to 1973.
Cars offered the 429 & 460/C6 combo beginning in 1968, but I doubt the various kickdown rods could be used in a F Series truck. The design/dimensions will be different.
