I do not see it listed at Steele Rubber (usually the best quality).

I'd try Jim Carter or Chevs of the 40s.

** I have tried 2 from different suppliers one from Jim Carter & one from classic. They probably get theirs from the same supplier. Will try another one from another source & see if it deteriorates within a couple of months. Vehicle remains in garage 99.9 percent of the time and gets no sun or rain. Thanks **

I have gotten them from the Truck Shop. They are not very good quality either.

Just thinking out loud here. Would prepping the bellows with some sort of conditioner/protector help them any?
