I developed an assembly information kit for restoring my truck from nuts and bolts. It's written in Assy. order, short & simple, packed with all OEM hardware ID; castings; part ID; 100s of part numbers; wiring simple - Resource, and trivial too.

Much info. applies to all 67-72 GM, A/C vehicles, esp. trucks W/O saying. Full search ability, including to 700+ images of illus., parts, charts, Assy., points of interest, cab, bed, & front clip cart plans- Specials and cores were serviced out and R excluded e.g. front/rear glass, body/paint, engine core, rebuilt hinges, steering box, trans, etc.

The project was in-line with long former professions developing process, policy, specs, demo, written for novices, admin., policy, engineers, development, systems & test - Public & govt 2, gross. Sell soft copy cheaply, PM if interested.

Re: Door seals?

.

Just picked up a really nice set of door seals off a '08 Civic at my local pick-n-pull. 15 dollars.

All hinges are new and bolts are tight.

Re: Door seals?

I bought the LMC push on. I thought they were OEM. I've had them for a year and always have to slam them. Reading around on our site here I see OEM was glue on. I'm going to go ahead and buy glue on but does anyone know if GMC Paul's are a better fit, or maybe glue on LMC, classic Parts America, or Precision?

I like the Fairchild brand door seals. Good fit and no slamming.

Re: Door seals?

Another thumbs up for the Honda Civic seals.

They are a little more compliant, so I was worried they would not seal against wind noise, but they work great. I can now shut both doors with one finger, which also required some trial and error adjusting the striker plates. Also, the doors are now very close to flush with the cab and fenders.

I've had the truck for more than 30 years, and this is the easiest the doors have ever opened and closed.

Re: Door seals?

I can confirm the push on and glue on ones LMC are both too fat. My door is sticking out from the body. I'll try Precision Replacement Parts next. https://www.prp.com/product/detail/1...ickup&type=All

Good deal Mike! I also installed new Honda door seals with great results - much better than LMC seals. Like you said, the doors fit more flush with the cab. If my truck is on a slight incline, the passenger door will close and latch itself when the windows are down. Driver's door still needs a light hand, but it's a '67 with no cab vent. Of course there's a big difference closing the doors when the window is cracked a bit.

I don't show 103466 as a current product. Clicking on the link sends me to #1110 67 glue-on seals.

You can have my Precision DWP 1112 67 press-on seal kit for the cost of shipping from zip code 76247. I bought them brand new a couple years ago. They fit very well, but make the doors hard to close, at least on my truck.
