heavy85 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I've got a '72 240 with an early 5 speed. Problem is the shifter boot doesnt fit. The '72 boot looks like it's made for an angled shifter but mine is straight. Also the shifter comes out towards the rear of the opening which stretches the boot real tight and is probably why it tore in the first place. Is there another model year boot that would fit this tranny or maybe a generic aftermarket one that I can make fit? Checked my Summit catalog and didn't find anything.

JMortensen Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 You could just bend the shifter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToplessZ Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I dont see how bending the shifter would help much. Aren't shift boots mostly universal. I actualy had one made up for my last car to disguise an auto trans. Looked trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labrat Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I got mine from the chrome section at pep-boys. like 6 bux or so, and it comes with a chrome surround to bolt to the tunnel. They have a small one and a large one, the small one worked great for me. This is in a 280ZX with 350/T5. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
