HI, I have been trying to finish up a super six manifold swap on my 71 Duster and I finally got around to putting it together and realized I am missing some critical parts.

I have the whole linkage part that bolts to the manifold and the long rod that runs down for the kick down. I am missing the parts where the rod is connected to the trans. I think I am missing the spring, the bolt pivot piece and maybe the specific arm for the trans. Is the arm on the trans itself different? I also noticed the pivot for the shifter linkage looks like it may be the same as the part for the kick down rod, Is it? I have checked the salvage yards around here and can't find any early model cars at all.



Please please let me know if anyone has these pieces and I want them bad! Or if anyone has any ideas for a solution. I don't want to do a lockhart cable ext because I almost have everything.

I don't think you're missing any pieces, but others should chime in if I'm wrong.

At the bottom of the long super six kickdown is a spring and the bolt pivot piece. The arm is not specific. The bolt pivot is the same as the non-super six piece so you should be good to go.

I climbed under again and the kick down rod connection is different. The old set up is just a rod bent with a cotter pin. So I need the spring and pivot. If anyone has these I'll pay big bucks!!!

Image Here is what I am dealing with..... I definitely need the spring and pivot bolt for the trans. I have been slowly getting this car on the road again. It was my grandfathers car and has been sitting in a garage for the past 22 years. I am absolutely excited to get out on the road I just need those two pieces so if someone is willing to part with them I'll send $50 asap!! I have scoured all of the yards in my area and can't find a thing.

Post in the parts wanted section too and you might have better luck. I wish I could help but I went the bouchillon route.

You may want to try switching to a cable style kickdown. You can get them for under $30 on eBay.
