Window Weatherstripping Recommendations
I'm looking for recommendations for sourcing new ones. My old ones are in place but all cracked up. I've read there are issues with clips on some new ones and I'd like to hear from anyone who has been happy with their replacement purchase on these. One source

The set I got from LMC fit better than the ones from Bronco Graveyard. The clips aren’t the issue. The problem is that rear curved section is formed wrong. Try to reshape the curve to fit the door frame and it can kink.

The belt mouldings I got for the FSB and F-150 from LMC was a few years ago so maybe they aren’t as good.

Has anyone used the weather strip kit from rock auto? Fairchild. Expensive, but it looks complete. Thanks

Interesting, I patronize both 1973-79 and 1987-96 forums. Both forums see re-occurring window wiper seals (anti-rattle) replacement business and I've sure replaced mine on both generation trucks a few times for different reasons. This is good, to help ensure the window seals continue to be manufactured. Also, interesting, one time I ordered wiper seals for my 77 F-150 through National Parts Depot and they were Precision Products. Since then, and coupled with others on the forum, I've become partial to their products, lets hope they continue manufacturing them in the US.

For my Bronco II , the door glass run bags state “Made in Thailand” on them. The on-body door seal and belt moulding packages do not have where they were manufactured.

I hope this isn't a thread jack but since we're talking weather stripping: Does anyone have a source for a rear window seal for a 1990 XLT extended cab sliding window? Everything I search for ends up saying that it does not fit a slider.
Closest I found is maybe this:
https://www.jegs.com/i/Precision/757...RD&model=F-250
https://www.jegs.com/i/Precision/757...RD&model=F-250
Closest I found is maybe this:
https://www.jegs.com/i/Precision/757...RD&model=F-250
- Rear Window Weatherstrip Seal
- w/Trim Groove For Lockstrip
