204E / 206E Replacement Gaiters

Applicable to the MK2 Zodiac, Zephyr, Consul '56-62.

English Ford p/n: E 125-GD-2. Inner dimension: 2 1/8" x 2 1/8" x (1 11/16" fork cut-out).
Ford p/n: C30Z-7513A. Inner dimension: 2 1/4" x 2 1/4" x ( 1 1/2" fork cut-out).

These Gaiters are used in the English Ford made Dagenham 4 speed transmission for the "62-'65 Ford Fairlane, Falcon, Mercury Meteor, Comet 144ci / 170ci 6 cylinders  64 1/2- 65 Ford Mustang 170ci / 200ci. 6 cylinders.
U.S. Ford offered three types of Dagenham transmissions which are L/H side-loaders p/n: 212E-7006F.
Dagenhams are similar to the English Ford 211E/213E and U.S. 3 speed 2.77 / 3.07 trans  ( designations are not gear ratios).

Replacement Gaiters are easily sourced from Ford parts suppliers, or ebay. $15-$24. They fit tightly in the Bell Housing and Fork. Smear vaseline on the Gaiter for easier installation, being careful not to poke thru the rubber. Use a worn, wide-blade screw driver to help maneuver the gaiter into place.

This replacement Gaiter may not work on the EOTA / EOTTA and 211E /213E Bell Housing. Measure the Bell Housing opening and Clutch Fork. I don't have access to these types.
