G56 shifter boot

I have a neighbor that ripped the inner shifter boot on his G56 transmission. The part # is 5161544AA and local Dodge dealer said it is on national backorder. Do you have this part # or know when it will be available? Thanks.

Jeff is a Cummins dealer, not a Dodge dealer.

The boot you're looking for is part of the transmission? The part number you have listed is part of the truck body.

Oops. Don't know why I thought he was Dodge too. LReiff, the boot is below the black shifter boot you see when you look in the truck. The local Dodge dealer had a hard time coming up with the part #, then told me it was on national backorder. I did not look at the truck myself, but it looks like it had a rubber-coated, steel ring that got pressed into the top of the transmission. It is, what I would call fluted and the inner hole fits tight against the shifter stub shaft. I think the purpose of the boot is to keep the oil in the tranny and dirt and water out.

U can use a cv boot off of a car to fix that. It's the dust cover off the very top of the transmission shifter?

What he said...the Dorman 614-002 universal cv joint boot fits the shift tower base perfectly once you cut it off at the right "step" . It's made from MUCH thicker silicone then the orange oem shift tower boot. Cut it down at the right "step", put a smear of rtv silicone caulking at the base and then a couple zip ties around it and you are good to go.

Amazon also conveniently sells it--
