Push On Weatherstripping for the Doors? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BKSS67 · 01-31-2014, 09:03 PM

I see the pickup guys have the push on weatherstripping option instead of the glue on. Do they make a Blazer push on as well?

At some point there would need to be a transition from push on to glue on once you got above the door to the fiberglass top.

If they don't make them, I was thinking about using a pickup truck set of push ons and cutting them short at the door/top transition.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Can't add much as for K5's but the push-on weatherstrip works well and have used it on two trucks (K20 and K10)

Back to the Top.

Are all the Blazer guys using glue on weather stripping?

I had a 72 c10 I put them on and I have to say the doors were very hard to close. Tried greasing them, cutting them to let air out, etc., and nothing helped. My truck was all original and never in an accident and the only answer I received from where I bought them was my door alignment was out. I had no problem shutting my doors with the original rubber. I had to slam the doors extremely hard to close them after the "upgrade". I wasn't the only one out there with this problem.

There have been some builders use the Honda part. It works great for C10. Try it on the K5.

Any pictures of the rubber? Maybe one of it installed?
