Maybe I missed it.... Which gaskets are you having trouble finding? The ones I circled in this picture?

Yes those are the ones.

I may have a new set of those. When I did my '69 Suburban they said they were going to be discontinued so I ordered 2 sets. I will have to look in the morning to see if I still have them.

Wow! That would be great. My body man will be happy too! Precision Rubber is supposed to be remaking the mould for them, but no word on when it would be ready.

P.S. That's a nice looking Burb in the picture

I complained to GMC Pauls about the fitment of those seals and sent them pictures of what was wrong and I think they decided to remake them because of that. They also redid the door opening strips, twice, because I said the first set didn't fit right at all, then I critiqued the second set. They wanted to send me a third set, but I was busy.

IMO GMC Pauls is "online mail order", but I think they are a small local business to someone. I am glad I went with them because they worked with Precision to get us better fitting parts. There is no one local to me that I know of that sells what I need, much less the customer service that I have gotten from them.

What was the problem you had with the fixed 1/4 window seals? As mentioned above I used the Precisions on my '69 Suburban with no issues....

The bottom length of the seal is too short, so when you put it on the window it pulls the bottom of the seal down into the channel. I sent pictures to GMC Pauls and I think Precision recognized that the seal is not correct, but I haven't heard back about it.

I finally found them. They are Precision brand. I don't know what the problem is that people are having with them. I used a set of these on my '69 Suburban and had no problem with them.


I sold the Blue/White '69 Suburban last Spring. I miss it.
