The going rate for Carhartts shifter boots on the interweb is about $4.99....

It's your product, name your price. If we think it's affordable, we will purchase them. If we don't, you bought your wife a nice sewing machine because you love her....

That's really nice. I'm surprised anyone wore out a pair of Carharts. My sons outgrow them. You should get some decals made that say "Carhart Edition" for your truck. If you are buying a sewing machine make sure it can handle heavy fabrics. My friend who sews had to get a heavy duty machine to handle denim.

Sounds fair to me. Is that trans and T-case? What do you need? Carhartts, console with that spring thing that holds the boots?

yeah thats everything ya just carhartts and the console i didnt use the spring thing on mine because it was already missing i took some 1 inch foam and made a base and attached that to the bottom of the shift boot and hot glued it into the console which works fine so mines permanant but if you have the spring im sure we could figure how to attach it

i'm in! i actually asked my mom to make me something like that, but i gave up and just went with bare rubber.

i still like yours though.

Im pretty sure I will be ordering one from you! what about using the left over from the pants for arm rest covers for the manual doors? Would that be something that might be done?

If you want to sell these you need to make a proper classified thread.
