Weatherstrip size -Question

Hi bullnose fans
I need to replace the weatherstrip of my 1982 F100
Can anyone tell me if the measures in the pic are the correct for the application and how many feet need for each door.
Thanks.

I cant say as mine was missing from 1 door and the other was so bad you could not get measurements from so it was thrown out.


With that said why not buy the right weather strips for your trucks doors thru say LMC truck or Dennis Carpenter?
I have not bought mine yet but that is what I will do. I also need all the door glass weather strip/rubbers too.

Door opening should be easy using a string. Start in 1 spot, little tape to hold it there should work, then work it around the door till you get back to the place you started at and mark the string or cut it but then you have a short string.
After marking the string pull it and measure it from end to the mark. I would add a little bit to be safe and that is how long you need for 1 door.


I could not tell you if the size of the rubber you show is good or not.
Hope someone else knows.

Look at LMC, Jeffs Bronco Graveyard, ETC at their weatherstrip kits to see if they list the size of the weatherstripping in the product description.
