Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Looks great. I know it hasn't been very long since most had installed, just curious if any have actually been in the rain since. Paul, if I were to purchase the 71' cab kit, could you tell me what is not included? Thanks

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

I finished the interior in my truck today ,glued in new seals and the doors are hard as hell to close sooooooo i just ordered a set and the new glue in ones will hit the trash as soon as the push on set gets here ...

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

anyone?

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Just ordered a set this morning...can't wait to install them! Thanks GMC Paul
Recieved my door seals and installed them, they went on great, the only problem that I would like to mention is on a tight corner while pushing them on to fit tight the metal popped through the rubber, small area but still exposed the internal metal. Other than that they are great. Mines a weekly driver, so all is good.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Thank you for the reply. I no longer need the door seals, so a kit isn't going to work.

I have a "Custom Deluxe", here's what I'm looking at now:

8 Piece Door Window Seal Kit For Custom & CST Trucks 280037
Includes inner felts with Chrome Bead, outer rubber seal, Division Bar Felt,&Door Glass Channel Run For Both Doors Used On CST & Custom Pickup, Suburban & Panel. LIFETIME WARRANTY.
$69.95

67-72 Division Bar Felt 360342
1967-72 Door division bar felt runs down back side of vent window bar from top at door upper frame to bottom inside door. For truck, Blazer, Jimmy, Suburban, Panel.
$12.00

67-72 Glass Run Channel 360346
1967-72 Door glass run channel, extends from inside door bottom at back of window up the rear glass run area and across top of door upper frame and ends at division bar. For Truck, Suburban & Panel.
$10.95

- Questions -
1) Are all rubber products manufactured by Precision?
2) For the 8 piece above (280037), it says "outer rubber seal", but the 4 piece anti-rattle kit (371090) says "2-outer rubber seals with chrome top bead" is included. Is there a difference for Custom Deluxe models, and why wouldn't the 8 piece kit contain outer rubber seals with "chrome top bead"?

4 Piece Custom & CST Door Window Anti-Rattle Kit 371090
For 1967-72 Truck, Blazer, Jimmy, Suburban&Panel. Includes 2-inner felts with chrome top bead, 2-outer rubber seals with chrome top bead, at bottom of window inside and out, does both doors. LIFETIME WARRANTY.
$39.95

Thanks

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

All the rubber is supplied by Precision in this kit. The part # 280037 do have a chrome top bead attached to the 2-outer rubber scrappers and the 2-inner felts in this kit. Its just not in that description and I'll see about getting it added. The division bar felts do not have chrome beads. The division bar felt was installed at GM assembly plant then they crimped a chrome bead onto the rear edge of the vent window assemblies division bar surrounding metal inside & out. When they did this they often trapped a portion of the division bar felt under the edge of this chrome bead. So when removing the division bar felt to replace it run a razor blade along the edge of the chrome bead on the felt side of it this will cut any felt trapped allowing you to remove the division bar felt liner for replacement.
The part # 280037 includes 2 division bar felts and 2 glass run channels so if you only have the 1 truck there is no need to add the part #'s 360342 division bar felt or Part# 360346 glass run channel.
we use a Part # 371090 + 2- Part # 360342 & 2 part # 360343 to make our Part # 280037 kit.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

I bought these kits, liked all of it and fit was good. The only thing I did was cut my outside window seal to short, I did not consider going past the wing division bar another 1/4 inch to seal that little area.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to answer a few questions! Really appreciate it! I know about the felt being trapped beneath the chrome on the division bar! I just finished sandblasting mine and noticed how some got trapped in that seam. The blaster cleaned it up good for me. Once I get organized, I'm going to buy from GMC Paul! Thanks again!

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Got mine today--won't install for while but Paul my question is in the sharp corner of upper front --is there a trick to install in that area-no prebend in these so I was just curious---Shipping was super fast and where were these on my last 20 trucks???? lol.....thanx again.......jim

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

jtp67-72
I would say just go slow and make sure it's tight push hard down to set as you go around that part keep the loose end pushing towards the part your pressing in the slot. The edges will seem so curl up as you go around corner so I used a very small screw driver to pull the lip up over the edge. Kinda hard to explain and the small loop wire inside the edgeing will tend to poke through, I just used the scew driver to lift edge and the wire will go back into the seal. You can use maybe stiff plastic so not to damage paint. It will be a little kinked at the 45 degree but as you shut the door it smooths out.
When you get to the end I cut it a little long then cut the bottom and used the extra rubber on top to tuck into where you began.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Thanx--figured someone had it figured out!.......jim

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

My doors are hard to shut but are getting better every time, been in about a month.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

I'd love to get a set of the "push-in" style for my '66 if you get those test fit and are happy with them.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

aventure1 check the ends of the door seal where they meet under the door seal plate and make sure if they are touching that you cut a 45 degree angle on either end, if they touch and no 45 degree cut is made on either end it makes it more diificult for the air in the bulbous portion of seal to escape which will cause the doors to close slightly harder than is required. This is recommend in the factory service manual per GM.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Hey GMCPaul. Any progress on the "push on" style door seals for the 60-66?

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

I've tried Every profile of push-on weatherstrip thats currently produced and the version we sell for the 67-72 had the best fit on the 60-66 trucks but in my opinion they required slightly more effort than I felt should be needed to close the door, altough in my opinion the stock 60-66 seals do also require the same or nearly the same amount of pressure to close the door. So I was not able to come up with any for the 60-66 trucks thats perfect for them I'm sorry to say. We've had several 60-66 owners purchase the 67-72 push on door seal and they were happy with them but we will not be marketing them as a product for the 60-66 trucks.
Sorry I didn't have positive news for you.
GMCPaul

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

No apology necessary. I appreciate the detailed response. Based on the praise they've received from other members, I may just try them on my 66 none the less.

Thank you very much!

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Just put another set on my K20....great product!

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

Hiya Paul - Am I understanding correnctly that you have 60-63 EARLY cab folks that have tried these with success???

If so - My 62 C10 will have to have a set for sure.

Thanks bob

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

70 GMC here, push on type door seals. In 15yrs of restoring trucks and cars, these are top notch fellas. .. buy em. I'm confident to say they're if not the best out there, they're really close. (top two) They will be going on my 68 too.

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

^^^^amen.......jim

Re: GMC paul door seals are great!
 

I'll be placing an order for my 67 real soon.. Paul could you do the \/ cut prior to shipping them out ?
