5 speed shifter boot

[PWJ]

I have a 1989 Bronco 2, 2 wheel drive. I’m trying to find a replacement rubber boot that fits directly on the transmission where the gearshift handle comes out.
the ones I find have a three bolt hole pattern. Mine has 4 bolts attaching it to the transmission. I don’t know if my Bronco has its original transmission.

The 3 bolt type are for M50D, you have the predicessor's manual either a Togo or the Mitsubishi.

I will keep my eyes open for a 2 wheel manual shifter boot.

Thanks
i may be able to reconfigure the holes in a 3 bolt boot.

You need the shifter or the boot?

The boot is the same between the FM146 and the M5OD trans..... the shifter is different.

Does that mean the 3 hole boot is the same as the 4 hole boot except for the bolt pattern?

What most of us call the boot, is the big rubber accordian-looking piece that mounts to the floor and comes up the shifter shaft to keep hot air, water, dirt, etc from coming up into the cab. It sounds like the 3 bolt piece you are referring to is actually part of the shifter and keeps dirt from falling down into the transmission.

Are you referring to this?:

FM146

M5OD

If the answer is yes, then happy junkyard hunting for the FM146 one.
There is an aftermarket shifter for the FM146. But, $300 for a shifter in a truck seems a bit silly to me. I'd probably take what I have and go to a good hardware store to see if they can come up with an o-ring or something to seal it back.

That’s it. I have the 4 bolt configuration.

I need the same boot. The closest "might work" boot that I found surfing the web was on Tractor Supply's website, but I haven't checked it out in person yet.

Does anyone sell new replacement rear quarter glass gaskets?

It’s not a gasket that seals it off. It’s a windshield glue.
