Windshield weatherstrip question??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Street Smart · 07-05-2013, 06:19 PM

I need to replace the windshield in my `70 panel truck. Clean up a lil surface rust (I hope only surface, lol). I need to get a new gasket, any recomendation on what brand and where to buy?
My buddy just did a glass in his suburban and there was a problem with the new gasket. Luckily the old one was reuseable. I don`t want to run into the same problem.

Do a search on youtube for precision 72 chevy truck windshield installation, espaecially if installing the deluxe gasket with stainless trim. Also if using deluxe stainless trim, be sure you have the correct year gasket for the trim you have.
