Re: Windshield Gasket
Please don't buy a gasket from them. Buy a precision gasket. They are so much better. Just put a new windsheld in my 72 fit like it should. Nice and soft.

Re: Windshield Gasket
67-72 have the same windshield in them. Where the difference comes in if the truck has chrome trim in the gasket or not. 67-70 had a deeper leg on the chrome piece, while the 71-72 had a shallower leg on the chrome. If no chrome present then a WBL 685 ordered from Precision you will be all set.

Re: Windshield Gasket

Re: Windshield Gasket
Classic Parts does not have Precision Seals. WES or GMC Pauls, carry Precision Seals and as mentioned, they work well.

Re: Windshield Gasket
if you are running the chrome strip in the gasket you need to know if it is 67-70 or 71 up because the lip on the chrome is different. However if you have the correct gasket for the trim you are using it will fit any 67-72. Ditto on everyone else's response only use precision seals lots of soapy water and patience when installing it!
