The other day I was looking thru the classifieds and came across a thread for parts needed for wind windows, followed the link to car and truck site

They had the division bar in shock, ordered the part and was happy with what I received, but, I didn't read the note which mentioned the original felt channel that was not included

Ordered that part and was even more pleased with parts

Originally what was supplied was a sticky thin piece of felt, which may have worked, but was the wrong thickness for the glass, so if you order the division bar, don't cheap out. Buy the felt with it as recommended in the notes

The bead on the division bar is exact replica

Now, I have to drill all the holes for the rivets

Drilling new holes in division bar, stainless steel ,so make sure to use a cutting fluid, or you may work harden material

Been working on my aftermarket doors, couldn't get the gaps right, so I tried something extreme, I jacked the body up, about 1 inch and got the gap you see.

Now just have makeup a body mount to fit

litebulblsc 07-10-2021 09:49 PM

Re: PO has me PO'd
 
1 inch seems like alot to shim a body mount

jaros44sr 07-11-2021 09:32 AM

Re: PO has me PO'd
 
Well actually the original mount is 1/2” and the space to get the door lined up is 1/2”, so considering age of truck maybe the rubber mount is shot. Don’t know what size they should be

Thanks for the input

Working on my weatherstripping ,making sure my door closes right, I put down 1 layer of cement, dry to the touch, then add 1 more wet and clamp in place

Once you get it started its easy to turn inside out or backwards to apply glue
