A possible substitute for the rubber boot on the brake control rods could be a modern day boot for a rack and pinion steering box. I grabbed one out of the back room (this one is for an Iltis). By cutting the boot, I can make it any length I need. One end will fit either the washer or the hull flange nicely....the other end merely sits over the flange or washer. I cut this one quickly....I'll get it to the needed length in a week or two when I install the rods.

This way you are working with a fresh rubber rather than 70 year old rubber.
