Rear sliding window seals?Where?! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anybody make the seals for the sliding rear window? i mean all of the seals not just the window to cab seal.

the rubber seal that the window parts slide in,the seals that seal the sliding glass to the stationary glass etc?

ive looked EVERYWHERE with no luck!

can anyone help?

you can get the seal in the cab the rest either let a glass shop seal it or get a new window

WOW. Too funny. I have been looking for the exact same thing too. I want to keep my original back window but it needs the runners where the windows slide. If you find any let me know.

They make 99.9% of the parts on our trucks down to special little bolts and washers but they dont make a popular windows seals?

what gives?!

how are all of you guys out there getting them sealed?! especially on your garage princess'?
you just buy a new rear window even if your old ones perfectly fine?

I ended up putting in a new back window that someone gave me years ago. It's pretty close to original looking but lacks the runners and seal on inside. I do want to redo my original though. I think most people buy new aftermarket. I just asked a buddy of mine I do business with who is a parts guy for GMC trucks. GM does not make them any more. I kinda figured but I had to check. Nor do they make the seal either.

We may be able to help you out. We sell the complete windows new but also some of the parts such as glass,latches,main seal. we buy from the mfg and they sell parts to. send me some close up pics and I can see if we can get it.

This looks promising, if you can find em I'd buy a set too. I just popped in a one piece rear window.

This is ridiculously late, But the question popped up on google when I was searching for new slider window seals for my 72 c30. Anything happen with this thread? Or any leads? I want to keep my original window in my truck just like the others commenting on here. . .

I just want to open my window if need be. It does not leak, just want more than a window to look out

I believe the answer is still the same,Have a glass shop do it or replace it.
