Anti Rattle Install

I’m trying to put my doors back together after paint and the anti rattle strips look too long. I got them from LMC and they are felt. I guess I’m looking for the order in which the door is put back together from being an empty shell. Any help is appreciated.
thanks
tom

It's been a year since I did mine and was only messing with replacing the window stripping, not completely stripping the door for paint. IIRC:

Put window into door
Put vent window assembly into door
?Install Fuzzies?**
Mount vent window assembly
Install Window Track molding
?Install Fuzzies?**
Install and mount window regulator to door and glass

** IIRC I installed my fuzzies before mounting the vent window assembly, but I can't recall if I fought them getting it and the track weatherstrip installed. Seems like it should work just fine, if not better, installing them after the track weatherstrip.

I would imagine that the exterior door handle, latch and release assembly, and hinges (if removed) could be installed at any point during the process. I never removed them on my truck and they weren't in the way during removal and install of other components. Can't say if other components would be in the way of installing them.

I think there is how-to on the doors in the tech articles section over on Fordification if it might help.

Thanks for the help. I’ll see how well this goes next week on my day off.
