so i was talking to this Jeep fellow, and he mentioned that cause my shifter console and boot/inner boot were all craped during my body lift,, i could use an innertube section, cut a square the size of the inner shifter boot and then cut and X out of it to allow for shifting,, and thus block air coming directly into the rig..           
then use a square of diamond plate of similiar material to completly cover the console were i crapped it and cut out the area necessary for shifting, then gather a general purpose aftermarket leather boot ...             


sounds good to me,  any body else do anything similiar? 

i was going to by a new console and boot to go back to stock appearance, but the gentleman that was going to sell me these parts never got back to me even after i was bascially waving the money around...   

go to the wreckers, find a 99 or newer tracker rubber boot for the tcase, find a 2wd s-10 for the shifter boot.   Some are different, depending on year.    S-10s have a huge mounting area, I runa that boot with 4 inch body lift, and looks good too

so  

That's a good idea, I guess any thin rubber material would work. I'll be doing this for my t-case shifter when I do my 3" body lift, Thanks!

sorry, sorry, sorry, weaver
i have been so busy with work it is just sad. i know that is no excuse, but it is the only one i got   i'll send it out this weekend and when you get it let me know, cause all you will owe me is shipping, o.k.  i promise

Auto parts stores also carry a rubber shifter boot by Mr. Gasket ( I think it is actually for a hurst 4-spd), but it has the boot and a chrome mounting ring for like 10 bucks.  I used one of them in my car for a lower boot and worked perfectly...could probably flip it to point down and it would work well in the suzuki as well.

i used the stock boot cut off the bottom section and threw out the front part of the console. i still have the cup holders.
