"The shoe has a leather seal in the upper end, P/N 01A-7314 (doesn’t appear to be
available any more). This is not only to keep grease in the levers and dirt out, but it
keeps the shifter tube from rattling around. You could probably make a new one out of
leather, but I found that three 7/8” ID x 1” OD O-rings fit perfectly in there, si
de-by-side,
and do the job quite well. Make sure it’s clean and oiled or greased when you put it backtogether."
