I'm in need of a transfer case boot and retainer for my 64 i have found boots for the 73-79 trucks but can't find a retainer does anyone have a pic of an original boot for the 64 truck my shifter seems to have a pretty long throw so I would assume its an oblong boot but I've never seen one
Notice that the correct boot is not oval, it's rectangular...proven by its specs.
I am fairly confident that if you ask any 4X4 slick owner (excluding '66 1/2 tons), they can tell you that both hole in the floor and the metal ring (if present) are indeed a rectangle, with round ends.

I'm not laughing at you, just the parts book.
What's your problemo? I posted the parts catalog pic of the boot and listed its specs.
And, I editedin the notoval comment after I read what schoo typed in post 2.
I assume he's not one of your confident 4WD slick owners, since he said the boot isoval!
Click on the link from my 65 build down in the projects section. That is a boot I used out of a 67 or 68 from pull and save. Top is torn a little so I use an aftermarket shifter cover for it for now. It did have an oval based boot to start with but so rotten it could not be used.
Try Bronco Graveyard you may be able to sub in a boot from a later model truck. As far as I know there are no repops on the TC shift boots for our trucks. You might be able to find one on Ebay sometime.
