68 gas pedal upgrade???

I want to upgrade my 68 c10 to the cable driven version used in 71-72. They're hard to find? Anyone know if a 73-87 will work as well or know where I can source one from a 71-72? Or other experience / recommendations?

Thanks!

I used the regular billet Lokar cable pedal and love it.
They also have a black to match the other pedals. They are a direct replacement to. They use the same holes.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
