Brake booster seal
Would anyone happen to have the plastic piece that goes between the brake booster and the firewall for a 72? Mine was busted. If not has anyone used anything else as a seal.

If memory serves me correctly no one was reproducing this part, (either bone yard sourced or obsolete parts sourced)?"NC72crew"Would anyone happen to have the plastic piece that goes between the brake booster and the firewall for a 72?

Re: Brake booster seal
I believe your right. I dont believe there reproduced. I was hoping someone here had an extra one laying around.

Re: Brake booster seal
Why do you don‘t use a standard rubber Firewall grommet with the right OD? Just punch a hole of the puschrod diameter in it and your done...

Re: Brake booster seal
I used a a rack and pinion tie rod bellows from for a 91ish escort, cut it for length but I'm sure other models will work. Fit tight on the rod and the fire hole.
