I have seen it done by routing a lokar type kick down cable system to the gas pedal. So the movement of the pedal is what moves the kick down lever. I have a pic of the setup saved somewhere I’ll try to find.

I modified the factory throttle body for a cable, I did not take pictures when it was apart. I use the factory TPS. Currently I have a ford 2 wire PWM as my IAC. I think I will switch to a chrysler unit as I see a machined block is available.
There was an electric unit to control kickdown when I looked into it years ago. I decided I would rather have a cable throttle.

On my 2001 Ram Van with the 5.9 it uses a cable to the throttle linkage (pass side) don’t see why that couldn’t be made to work unless you have fly by wire. Use the 03-5 truck TB, it had a cable TB
