Did a small mod on my shifter lever today and when I removed the shifter boot I came across this, It is the seal under the shifter boot. Was wondering if anybody has one they can or would like to part with?

 

I would like to find a new one for Red. I tore a corner on mine when I was messing with the shifter one day. Sorry I cant help Richard but I think I might search for 1 now that I remember it could use one.

 

I would guess you could order one from Ford. Another thought is to call Midwest transmission and see if they will sell one or tell you where to order it.

 

yeah mine is FUBAR'd too

 

Here's a lead for you guys Drivetrain.com

 

Not having any luck in my searches on the net. Does anybody know what Ford calls it or the part#?

 

Richard,

We were typing at the same time. See my post above.

 

Thanks Robin looks like a good site to book mark but I didn't see that part.

 

i think the part is a ford part because it is on the body side not a zf part

 

I reckon I will have to call my wifes cousin at the local stealership Monday

 

Mine's ok at best. What do you guys use for a really stubby phillips screw driver for the front two screws? Any better ways of doing it? I hate those screws. And I know I don't have it sealing as well as before my new clutch and trans went in a few months ago.

 

i use a #2 phillips bit in a shallow socket on a 1/4" drive rachet

 

I do the same thing

 

I think the only way to get this is to buy the whole boot/trim ring. I had to replace my whole set up because the plastic had broken in two places. it came with the boot, plastic trim ring and inner "seal"

I think this is true, I ordered one from Ed a while back when I tore it doing the clutch. I tried to reuse it but it leaked.
