I have a baggie of 20 of em & I'll see if I can find em tomorrow & take a pic & I would send you one. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth

Given the hole diameter, the shaft diameter and the width, it should be possible to buy from an industrial supplier, although it may be sold in lot sizes of 20 or 50 or whatever. R.

Same seal from '60 until the end of production. my '69 service manual is showing a larger seal,....? i know i've been thru this before but must have slept too much since then. rock auto is showing a larger seal than what i have, assuming i'm looking at the right seal. i'm tring to get the pat blais ebay site up but so far no luck. he sells a re-seal kit and i need a kick down lever too.

The shift cable entered below and forward and used an O ring seal. As John said, in 1966 when the linkage type shifter was introduced, there were now two shafts that come through the case. The shifter shaft is larger and uses a metal backed seal that is pressed into the case while the throttle pressure shaft now comes through the center of the shifter shaft but uses the same seal that used to be in the case of the previous cable shift units.
