     Are you talking about the rubber gasket that goes around the whole door frame on the cab once you open the door ?  If so, that is the only one I have ever seen, never heard of a second gasket there.

 If I remember correctly, theres a second gasket/weatherstip on the pre-80's trucks. But 81 and later show only on the single piece.

There are two tools needed, duct tape and WD40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD 40.

     Does your truck have drip rails ?  If not water can collect on top between door and cab in the gasket area.  I have heard others complain of the same thing after removing the drip rails.
