i got brand new weather stripping for both doors for my truck.its tight,the doors take a little effort to close completely,but it is air tight.i bought some supersoft brand for a gm,but its the same kind my truck used from the factory,so it fits perfect.i'm sure after it settles the doors will close a little easier.i'm just happy to finally get this done,one more thing off the to do list on this thing,one less thing i have to worry about.not to mention its getting winter and i'll finally be able to feel the heater plus it looks soooo much better...now,the floor pans and new carpet are on the list.

Truth has no agenda, but those with an agenda make their own truth. Some of us are so open minded they only see their View

When you fix the floor pans 1bad, the problem will get worse.
It's always been a problem closing the doors with little effort of these regular cab trucks.
The doors are so light and without anywhere for the air to escape, it's often a 2 time effort.
With the windows open, the door fells like it's going right on through to the other side.
Where did you buy the new weather strip?

magnum,i bought it at auto-zone.it fits like a dream,identical to the factory stuff that was dry-rotted and missing on mine.as far as the door not closing,it done the same thing on my buddies s10,and it is exact reproduction stuff for his.i know i'll probably get made fun of for not buying high-dollar repop stuff made just for my truck,but i'm on a very tight budget(i'm the only one working,wife is getting ready to go to nursing school to be a cna,then onto rn)so if i can save a few bucks,im there.i'm going to make my own floor pans,only replacing the bad areas instead of the whole thing.again...budget,and besides,its a street truck,not a resto and who is going to be looking under the carpet?i'm not skimping on carpet though,going correct repo on that.
