Re: Who makes good weatherstripping

When you replace the new rubber from old one you should readjust the doors, hood, and sometimes the windows with new rubbers because the old rubbers wore out sometimes flattened out.
The parts may have been re-adjusted make the tighter after so many years gone by.
All most all new rubbers made will be a little fatter and will flatten in years you may have to re-adjust them again, as the years go by.

Even if you got good old GM rubbers there going to have to be re-adjustments needed in cases.
I never used LMC rubbers yet have some small one. I have used Steele rubber & SoftSeals & one more I can’t think of it. Some good some could have been better work with tweaking & adjustment .
I here your pain been there
