Transfer case gear lever boot

Bobby Mac said:

I use low range to reverse up my steep driveway almost every day. I’ve just noticed the transfer case leather gear lever boot has abnormal wear where the lever obviously jams the boot up against the surrounds when it’s moved forward. The same does not appear to be occurring on the opposite side. I imagine it’s merely an adjustment problem, but I would be interested to know if others may have the same.

Is it leather?

Very thin leather - not as thick as my hide

Hi @Bobby Mac I also use the gear reduction very often. However, I haven't paid attention to it yet. As the Grenadier isn't near me (it's not my daily driver) I'll have a look at it at the next opportunity (probably this afternoon) and get back to you.

Had another look this morning - I’m pretty sure it’s leather albeit thin - it would be strange to have the rest of the vehicle trimmed in leather and not the lever boot………………….. or would it
