Thanks Nate for the info.
Unfortunately the person helping me with some of the repairs destroyed the wire
retainer.
Does anyone have an extra clutch fork boot wire retainer they would be willing
to sell? Application is a '57 3100, located in Central California.
THANK YOU,
Bob

Subject: [old-chevy-truck] Re : Clutch Fork Boot
You have the Muncie SM420 tranny and parts are still made for it , the old
leather boot is long out of production sad to say .
This tranny was used up to 1967 and I think the SM465 tranny uses a close fit
boot so Chevs Of The 40's in Wa. State in Vintage Chevrolet in Ga. should be
able to fix you up .
Many 4 X 4 parthaus' will have generic boots to suit as these are both still
very popular ttannies in Rock Crawling .
You'll need to re use the old wire retainer .
