Here's a recent thread discussing some that a board vendor carries.

I like to use door weather stripping from ninety-something models of Chevy truck/suburban/tahoe. They clip on and work great for me. check out the junk yards.

Somewhere on here I read that the door stripping from a mid 90 Dodge Dakota would work. Lo and behold I found a 95 Dodge Dakota in a junkyard and it fit perfect. No glue needed and all I had to do was trim about 3 inches off of the length after I installed. No problems with door sticking out to far and shuts perfect. Oh yeah...$10.00!!

I tried the dakota one myself but it seemed too tight.... I bought GMC Pauls push on door weatherstrip and it fits PERFECT... I couldnt be happier

The 1988 up Chevrolet push on door opening weatherstrip and the Dodge Dakota weatherstrips may work all right is they are used but if you get new you'll have difficulties closing the doors as those push-on style weatherstrips have a thicker profile than the original 67-72 door opening weatherstrips have. Using those on the 67-72 trucks can lead to problems getting the doors to close and in locking the doors because it puts so much pressure on the door latch that unless you put your weight on the door its impossible to lock from the outside with a key. The push-on weatherstrip we sell will replace the originals perfectly and you will not have difficulty in closing the doors and locking them.
We carry these on the following page of our web site for the 67-72 trucks.
