I used the Dakota seals on my 69. I don't know the length, but they were at somewhere around 3" too long.

FirstOwner69- Thanks very much that is exactly what I was looking for. I will be using the Dakota door seals.

I think I'm going to switch my drivers side door to this seal just to make sure it's my new precision seal that is the problem. Hopefully this helps the door closing.
