Re: [FWDLK] Dust boot

Hi Terry

    I haven't done a boot for a driveshaft but I deal with other boots in my job and I have had success heating them up in a pail of hot water from the tap, actually I just put them in a parts washer that sprays hot soapy water on them. Good Luck.

Subject: [FWDLK] Dust boot

Hello all again:

I am attempting to install a dust boot into my 58 {Plymouth 's drive shaft.

Had anyone out there had any luck with these darn things?

The shop book indicated to slowly force the rubber boot through the prop body using grease and your fingers.

I have been working on this thing for 12 hours!!

HELP

Thanks in advance

Terry C
