Kickdown Linkage Clips / Alternative

Dodge72 said

Thanks all. Unfortunately none of these linkage rods have any holes , otherwise I would've dug for some barrette clips and be done with it.

Those ones in the Advanced link will help with the one rod end going to the linkage bracket, but for the other two they need to connect on top, not to the side of the hole. I'll see if Napa today has any variety of clips. Here's a listing for the original looking clip that I need:

Those clips pictured are for the long one piece KD rod and are larger and offset/angled, the 3-piece KD linkage clip you need is smaller and comes with a right or left swing so be sure to get the correct one when you purchase them. Be careful not to buy the carb or choke ones as they are too small. For the shifter linkage at the trans there should be a hole in the end of the trans rod where it connects to the lever for a cotter type/hair pin or if it is a 74 and up rod/lever on the trans it will have a small plastic bushing in the lever that the rod snaps into.
