My '49 has 4 shift levers. It has a Warn Overdrive. What are the correct boots I should get for this.

You can get the correct boot and retainer from Walcks. However, if you're like me and want it to look really nice, get a leather tcase boot and another leather tranny boot. This picture is before I trimmed the boots to fit the retainer.

But these are the correct ones:

Where did you get the leather boots? I bought a set but I think they were for a G503 or something and the shift tower is shaped differently...at any rate they don't fit....
-
I got mine from either Kaiser or Walcks. How come they didn't fit? I had to make new holes for the screws because the MBs are different. These are for MBs/GPWs.
I already have the boots for my '49 which are leather too. the rubber ones crack to quickly.

The large boot was too tight a fit over the tower where the shift lever pivots, and the set came with a boot for the accelerator, which would not work at all.....they were "on sale" , which may explain why they wouldn't fit...
I did not get them from Walck's
