Weather Stripping Kit - Where to buy? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Can anyone help me find a complete cab weather stripping kit for my 71 Custom Deluxe? I've found one kit at GMC Paul's, but was wondering if there are others available.

^ I'll check these out now. Is LMC weatherstrip good quality? ges55, that LMC link was for Jimmy/Blazer. I found the other link though http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cb/full.aspx?Page=11

I think I've read somewhere that Steele makes good stuff. Unfortunately, their website is hard to navigate and not so easy to comprehend.

That SKC site looks like its got a good kit for a good price.

i got one of steeles catalogs (FREE! lol) its a lot easier to read

litew8 · 09-23-2011, 02:54 PM

Does the Steele catalog have a kit for 71 Deluxe C10?
And what do you think about the SKC quality?

There are some choice four letter words that describe LMC's quality perfectly.

1972RedNeck · 09-23-2011, 09:43 PM

Oh yeah, good is not one of them.

GMC Paul sells the press-on seals for the door to cab. They are the BEST hands down. No glueing, no fuss, no mess. They can also be removed and installed over and over.

I noticed that in their description. Might be a good investment. Do you have them installed, if yes - they must seal good eh?

Yes, I do have them installed. They seal perfect. I wish all other parts for these trucks fit this good.

I had read that GMCPaul's gets their stuff from Precision - which is good stuff. Can't verify that, but sounds like you agree with the quality.
