Kickdown linkage guide bracket

[jbadams]

I need some help on even knowing what this part should look like. My kickdown linkage bracket was cut for some reason so the linkage flops back and forth between the remaining part of the bracket and the valve covers. This is on a 65 Belvedere 426. Can anyone send me a picture of what this should be like or even have one?

I looked through my '64 Polara pictures, but could not find a clear picture of the bracket. Basically, it has two fingers that stick up to guide the kickdown rod. If you could find a 1963-1965 Chrysler in a junkyard, it would have this bracket.

search the board for a stock set up. Here is a good clip on the adjustment.

That's the '66 and later articulated kickdown setup. If you can get all the pieces, it will work too. Chrysler came up with this because the engine moved back about 2" closer to the firewall in 1966, and did not have room for the earlier one-piece rod to work.

This is the stock unit for my 77 B200 van. I am just putting it back together. Not much is attached. There is a similar but smaller piece that the springs connect to. It uses the two forward bolts for the inlet manifold. Rag is in the hole for the distibutor.
