Need to find the steering rack bellows locally
I have a hole in my bellows on the rack and pinion and need to replace it. Dave @ FFR said they don't sell them separately.
Has any one found out where to get them? If you could share that information with me I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks'

FWIW, here is some old information I had saved. I have not verified any of it, and the part numbers may be obsolete and/or the links broken. At least it's a place to start...
Steering rack bellows? Try J.C. Whitney #Dorman 614-020. A universal one will not work for both sides. One side of the rack has a very small diameter mounting area. I found them at Flaming River. Part number FR1501B They can be purchased through Summit with that part number. On my roadster , when I replaced mine a couple of years ago, the tech at flaming river said that the bellows were the same as a 74-78 mustang II manual rack. The replacement boot was a MOOG K8437, which will fit either side. Does not have any provision for a vent tube. Rock auto had them for cheap.
I just replaced the steering rack bellows and this is the kit I got from Summit. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/FLA-FR1501B See this thread if rack replacement is req'd: https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/show...451#post542451
Replacement boots for the steering racks: Moog #K150289 may fit the 33-HR Rack if the big ends are the same size. Here is my thread about finding a replacement part:

Thank you all.
I ordered the MOOG K8437. It looks like it is a universal size. Both ends can be trimmed to fit your rack and pinion.

Another option for others with the same issue is Mark at Breeze sells replacements.
