Re: My 52 GMC Build

the last AD I worked on for door seals was a 54. the owner had lmc rubber installed himself and the stuff was so stiff the door wouldn't latch. he ended up removing that and we installed some softseal brand. it was like night and day. I wish I could remember the profile but sorry, my brain doesn't go back to that file, haha. I am pretty sure they only had one option on their ordering page. if there is an option for softness go with the softest one you can get. adjust the door to close properly without any seals and then add the seal. it should be soft enough to conform to the profile needed and allow the door to close without slamming it. there are some nice peel and stick options but not sure how long lasting the sticky would be if it sits out in the sun. might ask the brand of the 2 sided tape they use and maybe they could send a sample?
