If it lasts a few years that will be fine as I'll just replace it again -- I'll let you know. I bought it from Sunbeam Specialties in Campbell, CA. You have to fax them the order as they don't have an on-line ordering system. It costs about $25.
Same here. Replaced mine with the Sunbeam Tiger boot from Sunbeam Specialties due to an occasional pop out of 3rd gear. Since I installed the Sunbeam Tiger boot it has not popped out of gear. It's a big improvement over the stiff, usual one.
