Hey guys, I just replaced my shifter bushings and the boot at the firewall was never secured in any way. How is it attached to the firewall? does it go around the lip?
What tips do you guys have to get this boot on? Thanks |

I had to stop repeatedly to wash my hands in order to grip the boot tighly enough to get it around that firewall lip.

I must have wasted 2 cans of brakleen on that thing to clean it enough to get a grip on it. then it got a nice dosing of silicon lube to help it slide over the lip |
