Isulation On Shifter Cover

Does anybody have a picture, or can point me to information regarding the insulation that is on the bottom of the shifter cover. Mine has pretty much disintegrated to nothing. I have a 1972 F250 with a T18 4 speed.

Thanks.

Are you talking about the foam sponge thing?
I did not look for one for mine as it was also just falling apart also. I would think if you can find some closed cell foam it would be ok.
I dont know what it is used for but I am not running anything and I dont get any smells and dirt in the truck but I also have 2 good rubber boots, main trans NP435 and over drive lever, and then carpet.

I got this replacement rubber shifter boot for mine: https://www.dennis-carpenter.com/tru...waAvIvEALw_wcB
I also ordered these foam o-rings (removed the center and stuck two together) and replaced the rotted out foam gasket between the transmission and the shifter hump: https://www.ebay.com/itm/31405511246...d48747c6d56d2c
