Quiet Burb - New weatherstipping

I ordered pretty much all the rubber weatherstripping for my Burb from GMCPauls as my stock 40 year old stuff was either toast or missing. So far, I've installed all the rubbers, felts, division bars for all 4 windows, the door seals on the rear cargo doors, the 3rd door and the driver's door. Will have the new gaskets for the cargo door glass and the rear quarter glass installed by my glass guy as I am quite sure that I will break one. The Burb is very quiet now and feels like a different vehicle. No window or door rattles, no wind noise through big gaps. Seals etc have fit well. They are new and thick enough that I have had to adjust door hinges and strike plates. I am sure that they will compress more with time. GMCPauls was easy to deal with and got the stuff out quickly.

Re: Quiet Burb - New weatherstipping

That is very good to hear. I am going to do the same thing in the very near future. Let us know how the back 1/4 and rear cargo door glass comes out.
