Steering shaft boot

What are you guys using to replace the rubber dust shield on the steering shaft. It's the boot that covers the ujoint on the shaft between the column and the gear box.

Re: Steering shaft boot

TTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


My boot is cracked and I want to just replace it before I put it back in. I am talking about the boot on the top"near the firewall". The shaft is in good shape and I hate to replace it for a boot. Any help on universal boots or such that fit would be greatly appreciated...

Re: Steering shaft boot

G Body Parts has the rubber boot. To be honest, better off doing an Astro-Van shaft set up.
