RBT 5 speed rubber boot

[john bach]

my SPF 2116, RBT 5 spd, needs new inner rubber boot on RH side. is there local source for purchase? manufacturer and part number? and cost? looked thru about 15 pages on subject and got tired of looking.

Uh...are you talking about a CV joint boot? I would imagine that SPF could help. Don't SPF cars use generic Porsche 930 CV joints?

yes that rubber boot, as its the only boot around except for the other 3. asked David at Superformance and he has to contact the factory and that will take time. dont know if Porsche 930 is the same or not. trying to find local, like NAPA or? lots of them on the net.

Should be a 930 boot John (100mm CV). Try this:
1978-1979 Porsche 930 CV Boot - Driveshaft & Axle - GKN Drivetech 78-79 930 CV Boot - 116-01084225 - PartsGeek
At that price what do you have to lose? It's GKN which should be better than unknown generic?

Thanks for that info Mike Drew and DaveM

Very common amongst offroad/buggy shops
