Throttle linkage
The left side ball where it connects to the linkage from the steering column is worn.on my 31 tutor The linkage pops off I once in awhile. I’m going to replace the linkage and I haven’t removed it floor boards yet. Is there anything I should know,do or look for. It seems pretty much straight forward.

Re: Throttle linkage
It is pretty straight forward. Can be a pain to fish it out but not bad. Only thing I can think to add is that you don't want to lose the .010 shims that go between the flywheel housing and engine when you remove the throttle bracket.

Re: Throttle linkage
I usually keep extra shims in case I lose or need one .

All "back fit" earlier cars. You may be simply building up the ball with MIG or TIG. It is possible to remove the LH side "swivel/ball attachment" - at least for all but the late 1931 version (riveted). You might explore this as a repair modus and bring only that part to the work-bench? Joe K
