Post subject:  Kickdown Linkage Issue
I'm having a problem with the transmission not shifting to third gear. The truck hasn't been driven that much for about 2 years since the carburetor was replaced. The linkage isn't setup right. Can the linkage cause the transmission to not shift to third gear? I just ordered the correct linkage stud, and I'm hoping the transmission isn't screwed up since I don't have a lot of miles since the last tranny rebuild. The truck is 1979 727 automatic. Reverse does work, but it shifts hard to reverse.

Yes, it can cause issues.

Can someone please point out how I can purchase or make a throttle linkage stud? I bought the one below, and it didn't work, too short.
