Anybody know where to find this,I see all kinds of frt kits but never a rear,mine are really cracked,all four windows ,and Id like to find a four window complete kit.(These are the metal strips with felt that hug the window at the door horizontally and fit in with the metal tabs).Thanks.

 

Subscribing...

 

Subscribing as well, and giving you a bump to the top. I'm going to need these soon too...

 

The only place I could find them for the rear doors was at NPD (national parts depot). National Part Depot

 

Big thanks for the info,I have searched for hours and all parts front doors only and they have flat cut at frt unlike rears that curl up both ends,I will check that out,thanks again!

 

Well that was a bust! Called them with part # and the NOS they had is sold OUT and gone,at 50 a side very pricey but dont matter so quest continues for em,oh by the way if any of you are looking for the quad pinstripping they have a limited supply of NOS,might wanna jump on that!

 

Resurrecting this thread to see if you ever found these strips. I am gearing up to start collecting the needed parts to do the body work on my truck and this is one of the items on my list. Any updates?

 

I need a full set for my crew cab too. I know the fronts are the same as a 2 door but I can't even find rears at the dealer. Someone has to have them!

 

Wow my ol thread is alive again,and to answer your questions,NO!!! and its pissin me off,I have spent all winter lookin and at some random place found universal bulk stuff{?}but figured it was crap,I watch ebay and no go,would sell for gold prices probably,I think I need to go into business makin these ,mine are rotting off even lmc truck has nothing,any help on this would be AWESOME!I even toyed around with idea of making some outta frt ones but youd have to buy double sets and cut em up to get the radius on frt and rear,so sags cont,my new paint someday will look great with my old nasty beltlines!

 

What is the Ford Part number for these? I may have found a source. I won't know for sure until I can find the Ford p/n though. Front and back p/n's if you've got them.

 

Do these look like the right numbers?

F4TZ-3525597-A
F4TZ-3525596-A

Not sure which is the front and which is the rear, but I hope those are the wrong numbers because my "source" doesn't have them...

 

Hehehe, lookie what I found!

F4TZ3525596A Ford Weatherstrip - Door Glass Channel | eBay

Me no likey the price though.... I assume that's just one! Ouch...

I assume the fronts can still be had through the stealership, but I don't know for sure.

Just for clarification, the F4TZ-3525597-A is the Left Hand side; the F4TZ-3525596-A is the Right Hand side. Not exactly cheap, but at least we found them.

I assume the front ones are still available through the stealership, but I know you can get those through LMC, JC Whitney, etc. These rear ones are the ones that are impossible to find. Might have to wait on these for a while now....

 

I have feelers out to Fairchild Industries to see what they can do. They asked me to send them a sample to see if they can do it with tooling they already have. I'll send them my outer belts as soon as I can but first I need to work up a replacement while they have my belts, which I may be able to do with some parts I have already.

The one thing that may grind the whole thing to a halt is that there may be a minimum order of 500 sets. I know there are plenty of us out there that need these, but it may be hard to get the number to 500 even if we post this in the general area and on other forums. When they're done with their analysis, they'll send me a price estimate for a set.

I may try contacting Rockauto.com to see if they have any recent demand for these or if they can do some polling to see if they'd be able to get 500 orders. Fairchild sells only to retail distributors, so getting Rockauto involved may be a necessity.

<insert fingers-crossed smiley here>

 

That price may be a bargain compared to what Fairchild may send me. Hard to say.

 

Well, throwing myself on the grenade here... I checked Ford's official parts site. The original number was E7TZ-3525596-A and 7-A. When I did a search, they came up as shippable for 17.33 each. Hmmm.... I went ahead and ordered them. However, the new part number F4TZ-3525596-A and -7A list at $90+ each. I'll wait and see if the ones I ordered are the correct ones and if they're able to fill the order or not. They;ll probably contact me saying that the new part number is the only one available. We'll see.
