kick panel vent gasket
Looking for recommendation of material to use for kick panel vent. I bought a gasket set through a vendor but the material doesn't seem right. Any recommendations?

anew4961 have you used them? The ones I have bought don't seem to be comparable to the factory material.

I bought the whole vent flapper for the 68. I have also cut inner tubes up to use as the gasket and they seal better than the new ones do and they will not hang up.

Re: kick panel vent gasket
I just bought some rubber sheet , This ebay seller has it cheap with free shipping and different thicknesses to suit your project , I used it for the flapper vents and as a vibration layer between my rear mounted fuel tank and the frame .
