XXL Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Any suggestions on where I might be able to pick up the rubber shifter boot that goes over the 4 speed floor shifter in my '68 520? Mine recently tore and now I get to hear the road through the hole. I believe this is what kentigo (the ebay seller in Mexico) has listed here-- http://www.ebay.com/itm/221657084600... but not 100% certain. I have worn out my eyes trying to read the parts manual on MK's site... it appears the rubber boot is the only part NOT addressed by the manual :confused: Any suggestions on where I can get one in the US? 1 Quote Link to comment

That's the catalog I was searching... did I just miss it? Can someone hand-hold me on this? Closest I got was here-- http://www.carpartsmanual.com/datsun520/Datsun520521Index/PowerTrain/TransmissionGearShift/FromOct65/tabid/1462/Default.aspx, and there's no boot listed :( 1 Quote Link to comment
XXL Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I went ahead and ordered the ebay one. Thanks thisismatt, for the fitment validation. I was hoping to find one stateside to avoid the shipping delay, but I can be patient. 1 Quote Link to comment
Broncomaniac Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 XXL - I am looking to purchase the same boot. Hard to tell with the ebay photo, but does it have the tight lip around the large opening to fit on the metal ring??? Are you happy with your purchase? 1 Quote Link to comment

Hard to tell with the ebay photo, but does it have the tight lip around the large opening to fit on the metal ring??? Are you happy with your purchase? The one sold on ebay by kentigo is an exact reproduction of the original. It's just what I was looking for. Here's his current listing-- http://www.ebay.com/itm/221850947839 1 Quote Link to comment
Broncomaniac Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 By the time I thought to look for you reply, his listing expired. LOL I msg him and he says he will have more in a couple of weeks, so I think I will order from him rather than the eBay listing in Thailand. Thanks for the info. Now if I can just find an original style floor mat.... :) 1 Quote Link to comment
