    I am restoring a 1952 Willys CJ3A and I noticed that the wiring that goes into the ALA tail light has a rubber boor over the wires and seals to the rear of the tail lights. I anyone aware of a source for these boots.

    If you can post a photo that would help. Don't know the size but what about connector boots used on military lighting?

    I spent all day and I believe I can use a spark plug boot that fits on the distributor cap will work perfect, thanks for the ideas.

    You will do just fine. A jeep owner has to be an inventor, mechanic, adapter, collector of junk and wear many other hats. Yep you will do just fine.
