Its in really bad shape too, it needs an injector pump as well, but it a loaded 1st Gen, electric everything.

Well, everything looks so sweet on yours, congrats!
Sounds like my 90 I had that I wrote off in January fully loaded 5 speed 4x4 reg cab LE. Only thing it didn't have was cruise and roof lights.

Basically it's the regular VE casing that's been lengthened I couldn't tell you how it's done as my grandfather did it n it looks stock but the casing is 8" longer then stock with a longer cable inside with the VE pump end just the metal piece cut down shorter then a cable stop at the pedal.

mine likes to buck in 2nd gear when hitting bumps also. the pedal is so much more sensitive than my fords was

makes me look retarded driving through parking lots with speed bumps

I did some reading last night on here n seems it's due to the return spring on the throttle assembly being worn out or just to weak gotta be a stiff pedal.
