[WANTED] Where To Purchase Kickdown Linkage "Clips" For The Rods.

[hemi71x]

Anybody know of a vendor that has, sells, the unique "clips" that attach the kickdown rods to the bell crank lever used on the transmissions, engines, on our old automobiles?

If i can locate a few more of them i will be able to have complete set up's of some more linkage units.

Haven't had any luck with McMaster-Carr, Grainger, Amazon vendors, ebay, or specialty fastener shops here in the Sacramento, Ca. area.

I know they are out there, but i just don't know who has them to sell.
Anyone ever have to buy these before?
Where did you get them?
Any leads would be appreciated. Thank's a lot.

dorman sells it in a variety pack so i'm sure you could peel thru their catalog and obtain a part number and order just the ones you need.

Clips & Fasteners may have what you need. I've gotten hard to find stuff from them before.

Believe it's a 5/16" rod clip.

Seems like I have found them at O Really maybe??????? Probably not!!!!!
A few years ago, any good parts store had such in the back in drawers!!! Now days, those stores are hard pressed to find someone to work your CC!

Our local hardware store has them. Left and right.
