F-3 parking brake lever boot, source?

i'm using the factory tranny drum brake lever in my truck to operate the rear disc brake calipers and have modified the tranny cover to fit the lever. BUT i'm have a hard time finding the "shift boot" for the lever, does anyone sell a repro.?
i'll use something else if i have to, but thought they might sell it still.

Ya might try Mac's or Joblot.

I've used the Jeep boots for the mid 80's t176-178 Tranny's

I wasn't able to find a boot for my F2 so I glued some 1/2" thick foam strips to the underside of the transmission cover so that the seam between them ran down the center of the brake handle slot. It seals around the handle as it moves back and forth pretty well.

Mac's has a boot:

Part #99A-7242-B



So does Dennis Carpenter. Mac's is $11, Carpenter's $15, same number.
