Weather Stripping
One of the Jobs I need to tackle this summer on my truck is to replace all of the weather stripping. What I would like to know is who sells the best replacement weatherstripping?

Dennis Carpenter Reproductions.

Avoid LMC's soft rubber and plastic products. Their rubber formulation doesn't hold up to heat and UV exposure... ask me how I know.

Save yourself the trouble of using glue and try a set of 80-96 truck weatherstripping. It just clips on.

I just replaced all of mine with a full set from Precision, a lot less money than DC and still really good quality and fit.

Sure wish I had known about the "clip-on" version first though.....

Over the years I have replaced several trucks/bronco's with JBG weather stripping and have always been happy with them.

Thank You
Thanks For all of the advice, I will post pictures once I get the weather stripping and get it installed, will probably be the start of my build thread for my 73 F100 SB.
