hello i have a querstion on a 1979 f150 auto with a 351M motor.
well the question is that i need to replace the linkage to the
transmission due to a body lift removal. where can i find these
parts beside praying i can find a 79 ford in the junk yard?
anyone have pictures of the transmission and how it ties up?

got myself in to one heck of a bind with this project.

Thanks.

Have you tried broncograveyard or LMCtruck? They may have new or used linkages.
