Truck window rubber seals

[47 flatbed]

Hello all. Looking to get window seals for wife's 41 truck before we paint. Steele rubber products offers some as well as the rest carpenter drake etc. Steele is much more than the rest, what are the experiences everyone has had with products they have purchased to seal the windows. Thanks in advance.

I've used Drake's with excellent results.

Thank you. How was the windshield center pieces fit together.

They fit fine. the Drake rubber is more pliable than the rubber from Carpenter.

Awesome thanks. The Steele product looked like they interlocked together. Got to order something soon.

Steele Rubber parts are typically the gold standard. Carpenter and Drake have some suitable parts. Mac's is hit-and-miss.

That's what I'm looking for. Wanted to justify the 125 Vs 75 cost difference. I've got my 47 one ton to do also.

I used Drake for the '40 pickup windshields - both front and rear, with good results.

If you are replacing the side (roll up) seals, etc., Drake's kit is okay at best. With some modification, it can be made to fit.

I used LMC Truck seals on my 52 F1. Pliable and no problems after 10 years.

Eventually both truck will need all the window seals. Steele rubber has the side door kits also. Use vintuiques kit in the doors in my 47 wasn't really happy
