The boot for my 2014 Express gear shifted is slowly disintegrating?
Very weird...... Anyone else have or had this problem with there's as well?
Also, does anyone by chance have the dealer numbers for a replacement or have one kicking around they wanna sell?

Thanks for the part number Joshua.
It says it doesn't fit a 2014 Ram 1500?
You're getting it for a 2019?

My 2005 boot still looks good. Different construction, perhaps?

Part number i listed fit like a glove no issues at all takes about 10 minutes to swap out need a E10 socket to remove the shifter from the column other than that pretty straight forward. Sorry didnt grab more pictures got in to the zone and it was back together before i knew it lol. Pics are one of the old one after removing and the new one once installed.

How did you remove the wire to put the new boot on? did you have a disassemble the whole column? After unscrewing the shifter I realized that the wire cannot easily be unplugged
