Everything I hear is that Dennis Carpenter is the way to go. I just got my weather stripping from them and they are definitely heavier and softer than ones I've bought in the past. I'd recommend them so far.

Used door weatherstripping from a 96 F-150 from the JY. Worked pretty good I’d have to say.

Dennis carpenter is the premium brand and the price reflects it. Jeff’s sells several different brands . stay away from the super cheap stuff it’s not worth it

I personally used this kit and found it to be great quality and fit.

I've also used the '90s model door gasket with success. I pulled the passenger side from two different trucks as they were far less worn than the gaskets in driver's doors.

Not meant to be a hijack, rather a continuation of the original post. Is there a good source for new 90's door weatherstrip for a guy who's not interested in junkyard stuff?

Bryan,

These are the ones I purchased. Doors were a little tight after I first installed, but they've relaxed over time. Very happy with them.

RockAuto has them. As for the new seals, just beware, it may take a little time for them to wear in, making it hard to close the door.
