Just wondering if anyone knows were i can get a replacement rear right/passenger side door weatherstrip. Everytime it rains my floor is soaked. I see JC whitney has universal weathertrip but unsure if that would work.Any Ideas?
I wouldn't know about new, but I thought I should say that the wagon rear doors and the sedan rear doors are not shaped the same, so you will need a wagon one, if a Ford part, or a little extra, if from JCW. Try Green Sales or other obsolete parts sellers (google "obsolete Ford Parts") if you do want the real deal.
Thanks, I checked and cant find.Im going to have my wife spray area with hose while im inside car so I can try to pin point where leak is coming from.Now I know why the bottom of my door panel is all curled up lifting from the door...LOL.. It dosent matter if oem or even looks good as long as the water is kept out. If anyone has alternative ideas please let me know.
If it's cheap enough, I'd give Whitney a try. There must be a picture of what it looks like, if it's close go for it. The key is good weather strip glue and proper placement of the new. 3m w/s glue is great.
I been looking too buddy. Can't find it anywhere. One of us is gonna have to bite the bullet and try some o that universal stuff and report back. Mines not leaking yet so what are ya waiting for?! Keep us posted on any new developments
I was lucky enough to find a 4 door kit that fit my wagon. If the generic Whitney strips look even close to what you have, get it done! The alternative is what? rusted out floors, smelly carpet, ruined door cards? Doctors call what they do a practice, why should we restorers and preservationists have a higher standards?
For my 64 Country Squire it was easy. There are a couple of reproduction houses out there that carry galaxie stuff. Just lucky that 4 door seals fit a wagon.
There is a company called restoration specialties from pa I believe. You will probably have to do what I do cook a small 1 inch slice out of the gasket and send it to them they will tell you if they have the extrusion then you can measure the door by as many feet is with me at that point you will have to custom make any corners When I did mine I bought an X-Acto miter box kit and use that to cut the corners 20 years later and you still can't really tell that they are homemade not professionally made
Hmmm this is a good idea... your saying cut the corners out of the old stuff re-use them with the after market?
