Door and Cab Weatherstripping
Mike81K10:
Thanks for the Pic and Store Info on these. I thought about these for my 81 to get a better seal from air and water. Is this something you feel is good to use Captkaos? I know my truck did not come with these when new.
Captkaos:
I personally never saw a great benefit to these which is probably why GM dropped them, the door to cab seal pretty much keeps all the water out. When it rains, water will still enter the door gap as it doesn't surround the whole door. It stops and the front curve above the vent window area.
Chevynut73:
The '73 has this weather stripping and they appeared to be glued on.
