It's a bit of work, but you can modify your linkage to work. I can't take a picture of mine right now, but if someone else hasn't done it by the time I can, I'll snap a shot of mine for you.

If you don't like it that way, you can get the pedal and cable from a newer truck.

Not a QJet in this photo, but this rod is a reproduction piece for a 67 Camaro with 396, and it works nice. One end threads into the other end, so it has a lot of adjustment for length. Should work OK on a QJet.
