anti-rattle kit disappointment
#31
Cool. :)
So they are the same thing then?
Look to be made by the same outfit?
BTW, DC doesn't -make- anything other than money. LOL :)
It's been like 15 years now but I bought weatherstrips from the Ford
dealership. They fit better than the one's from DC. I could see right
away whoever put the clips on mine did 'em wrong.
Hmmm... maybe some batches of them are different than others?
How about this one? :)
The originals are made singly, with a curve in them.
The ones from DC were cut, then -bent- from strips of the material.
They are not original quality, only the price is. LOL :)

Ok guys heres a trick for installing the cheap crap: Use a flat blade screw driver with a big handle and FORCE the snap pins in at each hole. Inevitably some are in the wrong place, (cut off) and some need to be splayed open a little more before installing. I got the cheapest Ebae ones I could find and they work good enough.

Henryetta Ford, Henryetta, OK has 1 of the F4TZ-35257-A. Last dealer cost $42.52 last list $70.87.
I couldn't locate any dealers or obsolete parts suppliers that had the other one.

You might get more results posting in the 87-96 section, but while you're here, I found one of the part numbers you're looking for.

Got all my parts from Precision Replacement Parts and so far everything has fit great. Vent window rubber, window channel and anti-rattle strips all fit perfectly and no adhesive required. Door rubber has been test fitted and will be final installed today. Hope to reinstall back slider and windshield some time this week. Very pleased with these parts.

Did they have any for the windows on the rear/back doors?
Thanks

I purchased mine off of eBay. Think the complete thing for both doors was $75.00 or something like that. I installed them over two years ago (with little issue) and haven't had any problems since. Can't remember who the manufacturer was, but so far, I'm happy with the quality. Need to put in new wing window seals too. will do that at some point.

Rear doors in a crew cab use the same windows, felt and glass runs as the front doors.
I ordered the Ebay kit for a buddies X-mas gift and they fit just fine.
Been looking at the Truck Shop kit as I have a crew and need to order 2 full kits and they are the cheapest I've found ( I'm not cheap by choice) hope they will work good.

They both work, but verify the clips are in the right place before you force them in...
