Seals for side windows for a 95 Concourse

Post by kyidletime »

Sorry if I missed any previous posts on this subject.
I noticed that the seals around both of my side windows has apparently shrunk and has left an unsealed void. I don't think that either of them are leaking but I'd prefer not to leave them that way. Does anyone know where new seals can be purchased. Or, have any suggestions as to how to address the problem.

Thanks, Alan

Hi Allan,

Do you mean the sealing medium between the window flange and the fiberglass shell? If so, ideally that joint would be bedded with butyl putty.

From the factory, my windows had a thick foam weatherstripping material. Maybe you currently have the same?

I replaced mine with butyl and it works awesome. Not a small job, however.

Thanks for your response. What I was referring to was replacing the rubber like seals around the fixed windows on my rig. It appears to me that they have shrunk over time causing some gaps that aren't sealed.
