Bellows replacement ?

[starsnstripers]

Does one have to use the Merc "bellows adheasive" or will a rubber permatex sealer suffice? thanks

3M Weatherstrip adhesive works well as a substitute.

that sure is a pretty important seal there at the bellows sns. i'd never done bellows before so figured i should give myself the best chance of success..... i used this.

Thanks Mark/Ziggy Not a short cut, I wanted something other than Merc bellows adhesive "that also works" Alternative... I live quite aways from any Merc dealer so if i can get the job done then yeah i'll go to my local auto parts. Just like for the Permatex thread repair. Thanks Don that stuff should do the trick.
