Accelerator Rod Bushing – Nylon – 1960–1966 Chevy GMC C/K Truck, Chevy II Nova, Chevelle
The Accelerator Rod Bushing – Nylon is an OE-style throttle linkage restoration component designed for a wide range of classic Chevrolet and GMC cars and trucks. Correct for 1960–1966 Chevy and GMC C/K pickup and Suburban models, as well as select Chevy II, Nova, Chevelle, El Camino, and Corvair applications, this bushing restores factory-correct support at the accelerator rod connection point. It is a small but essential detail in classic truck and muscle car restoration parts where proper throttle response and linkage alignment matter.
From the factory, this nylon bushing was used to isolate the accelerator rod within the linkage pivot, allowing smooth movement while reducing excess play. Over time, original bushings commonly wear, crack, or disintegrate, resulting in loose throttle feel, inconsistent pedal response, or misalignment within the linkage assembly. Replacing the bushing restores the original relationship between linkage components and helps return throttle operation to factory standards.
Manufactured as an exact-fit reproduction, this nylon accelerator rod bushing matches the original GM design in size, material, and profile. The nylon construction mirrors OE specifications, providing durability and proper engagement without altering linkage geometry. Designed to install in the original linkage location, it supports accurate restoration without requiring modification to surrounding components.
This bushing is suitable for stock restorations across multiple GM platforms from the early 1960s, making it a versatile service component for both truck and car projects. Whether addressing a worn throttle linkage on a C10 pickup or refreshing accelerator linkage on a Nova or Chevelle, this bushing plays a key role in maintaining factory-style throttle function.
Offered as X-Parts by Auto Metal Direct, this component is a third-party OE-style replacement selected to meet AMD’s standards for fit and application accuracy. X-Parts provide dependable solutions when AMD all-new tooling components are not required, while still supporting factory-correct restorations.
