Pushrod Boot for Booster

I'm getting ready to start on the brakes for my 53. I built the bracket for the booster,(stock location and pedal) but now I need a boot for the pushrod. Anybody know of a source for this part. I see Mid-Fifty has a boot for the M/C, wonder if it will work? I'm pretty sure the only way they are available from the parts house is in a M/C kit.

You might be able to use a ball joint boot. NAPA has them. I think I remember doing that one time years ago...

I was looking around my junkpile yesterday and came across an old rack and pinion steering unit. Looks like the boot on it would work if nothing better comes along.

Sorry, I meant a tie rod end boot. A ball joint boot might work too but I doubt if you can get one separate from a ball joint...
