Can you send a pic and point to the problem areaI was thinking about buying new door seals to try to get the noise down in the cab.
They mostly look good and seem to be working fine. They're not dried out. A couple spots are flattened but still soft and seem to be sealing.
There's a couple small chunks missing here and there but he main problem is the upper rear of the passenger door.
You can see lots of daylight through one spot about 6" long and about 3" down from the top of the door.
The top back corner and the whole top of the door seems to be sealing well. And from the bottom corner up to this leak seems good. The rubber where it seals well is flattened a bit but still soft. The rubber where the leak is isn't flattened. It seems like it's as good as when it left the factory. Nice and round. I read about inserting hose into the old seals but I don't think that would make it stand any prouder than it already is so it still wouldn't seal. It would just make the sealed parts tighter.
The door fits and works perfectly and there's no play in the hinges or bushings throughout the swing of the door.
Would new seals be the same dimensions and not fill this gap? Or can you suggest any other options that wouldn't look hacked?
I'd say pay a professional. Looks like a total nightmare doing that job by yourself. Getting it out isn't the hard part...it's getting it back in...On that note, what about replacing the windshield seal? Is that a DYI job or better to pay a pro?
What are the chances that ia new one might reduce engine noise in the cab?
I made that slit to stuff filler into the seal where the gap is. :-(Isn't that slit in the weather stripping suppose to be by the bottom of the door? Having it up there seems like a place for water/wind noise to come in.
