When I did all the weather stripping on my '77 I got it out of LMC. I would imagine a guy could compare the model numbers from one truck to the other in their catalog if he wanted to.

To be honest I couldn't tell you I just heard the name from someone here one day and did a search. You have to give them your address and they send you a catalog. But I have found almost everything I have needed to redo my truck. Gotta be carefull though sometimes the after market parts don't mate up right. So as always its buyer beware. But all my gaskets worked like a charm.

LMC doesnt have an online catalog (that i could find) so i gotta wait for the catalog to get sent.... if you guys could find me a link or can think of some other site that would have what im lookin for id appreciate it

John is right about his stuff not being cheap but everything that I have bought from him has fit perfectly. I guess a guy has to weigh how percise the part that he is after has to fit. As for the weather strip like I said LMC stuff worked good for me.

good luck

They get it from DC. We sell the same in our online store, if you don't see it there, call as I'm adding a couple hundred product ids each day.

Thanks for the info John. This is like the second or third time you've answered questions for me in the short time I've been posting around here. Hope you don't decide to start charging. LOL, thanks.

Thanks, I managed to figure it out, just a dash difference. And I like that forgetor/rememberor thing, going to have to steal that.
