Default 1929 Ford AA Truck Transmission

Hi, I am restoring a 1929 Ford AA pickup truck. I was wondering if anyone had a schematic showing the shift rod connecting to the top of the transmission. I feel like I'm missing a piece.

The 28 and 29 AA used the same 3 speed transmission as the car. The 4 speed came out with the new chassis in 1930, which had bigger brakes, Budd wheels, and a hypoid rear axel, although it still used the 29 style cab, fenders, and hood.

The 4 speed came out in September of 1929 and has a reverse lock out lever on the shift lever. The bevel gear rear axle chassis came out in January 1930

yup yup yup, of course whos to say it hasnt been swapped for some reason. All it does is add a granny low in place of the dual high the 28/29's had. I believe 4th is still 1:1.
