Carburetor throttle rod

Post by johnernst » Thu Apr 27, 2023 3:45 pm

Im wondering what the correct carburetor throttle rod is for my 1927 Model TT truck. Ive attached a few pics of what is there now however it doesnt seem to move properly from the steering position so i would like to get the correct one. The one thats on there has a large curve in it where it goes around the water pump and also how it attaches to the steering column rod seems wrong. Im not sure if the throttle lever arm should attach with the pin or the bolt-on type as pictured but not used.

Here’s what the throttle linkage looks like on my 24 TT.

The thru rod looks correct.
All that other stuff is remnants of an aftermarket foot throttle.
