Help needed- Shift linkage support

[DMZ73]

This is beyond my brainpower.
I have  a 360 motor, 727 trans, going in my 73 floor console automatic.
The shifter linkage drives a vertical shaft that typically would pivot on a bracket, about an axis.
I have the bracket- It did not come on the trans.
The trans is out of a Dodge truck.
Is there an adapter I need?

Here is a  pic of the bottom of the trans . Typically, there would be the bracket right near/ under the speedo gear .
The second pic is of the throttle linkage assembly. Didn't know if it would help or not...

Your thoughts?

Thanks,

Dan Zimmermann

you tail housing doesn`t have the 2 bosses / holes for the support braket , You will probably have to replace the tailhousing

Terry,
many thanks for the photo of the correct mounting tabs.
Damn..
I knew it was going all too well.
How easy is it to swap the tail shaft?

Transmissions frighten me. Is it possible to fab up a braket that could hang off of 3 mounting bolts untill I locate a proper tailshaft?
Please let me know.
Best,
dan

Thanks Terry

I will have to keep an eye out for one..Ideally I'd like to get one as soon as possible.
I see a lot of them on Craigslist, but there is almost no way to tell if they have the casting support tabs.

Looks like I'll ask.

I can send you one if you need.

Terry, thank you! that's an unbeleivable offer!
Please tell me how much you would like to get for it, or if you want to do a trade, or whatever.
You can PM me for details.

I plan on fabbing up a simple bracket in the meantime. I just need to get everything mocked up in the car to ensure I have all the parts necessary to make it go.
Fabrication comes easy, it's the mechanical stuff I hesitate to do.
I really appreciate the help.
This is the best mopar site, without a doubt.
Best,
