58 f100 vent window rubber replacement

Hello, I need to replace vent window rubber in my 58 panel. I can't seem to find info on how this is done. Can anyone give me some guidance on this? Illustrations would be awesome. Thank you. And thanks for the excellent web site.

If I recall correctly, you will have to remove basically all of the window parts to get to the vent rubber. I would rather rebuild and engine than to do one door! LOL Have fun.

The shop manual does have a section on windows.

vent window

Yes, the vent window replacement is painful even when following the shop manual. I need to take mine back out as the vent window is not in there correctly and will not close completely.

After closer examination of my existing door rubbers the better they look lol. May be a good project for next winter. Thank you guys for the input. Happy Easter

It is not that hard. Parts available from Dennis Carpenter and he has a "How to" in his catalog.
