1967 2 Piece Clutch Rod Boot assembly
« on: August 14, 2023, 03:01:13 AM »
When unscrewing the 2 screws holding what was left of the clutch rod boot into place on my 1967 04D NOR Camaro, I noticed it had a steel retainer and a boot underneath. I didn't think anything of it until I realized the NOS gm boot simply wouldn't screw into place using the retainer.
After some digging, on UPC 7 C2 of the aim, there is a design change.
1st design being 2 pieces with retainer part #3886688 and seal part # 3886686.
This design is replaced with part 3909071 that is the one piece.
Interestingly, although my car is 04D the change is dated 10/26/66.

Another pic, note later part number boot with original part number retainer. The retainer will not fit over the later 1 piece steel reinforced boot which makes me curious as to why the diagram illustrated both being used.
