I think the choice is OEM type rubber seal with spring,
or modern type rubber seal with no spring.

I asked John at Midwest and he advised the newer redesigned
seal does not use the spring and can't as it has four little
knobs that stick up around the outside.

Take care,

Rubber boot - it seals better.
