วีดีโอ

I appreciate your videos. But you know most of us know the process of removing the door and hinges, but most have trouble with the mechanical process of removing those 50-80 year old bolts and screws. I'd like to see more of your "struggles" with stuff that is seized and difficult. I'm sure you regularly run across a repair like that.

..great presentation,...would have liked to see a close-up of the J- channel.

very helpful. Thanks

Where do I get the metal J hook weather strip retainer bar ?????????

Could you please tell me the dimension of the 3/8 plate .Thanks

Ok where in the world can I get those hood holder-upers? Anyone have a part number of name for the metal bracket that held the hood up?

Jerry, I have a helpful tip for you while installing the sound dampening material. Move to Melbourne, Fl where I live no heat gun required.

Why no bushings. Didn’t new bushings come with the pins?

FYI. TR-509 bottom bracket is not bent a 90 as shown. They point upwards, need to heated and bent.

Well hell lol found video I have a 1932 chevy coach it runs fine but have a radiator leak ...mmmmm...soooo will have to work on him a bit ...have any old time tips

Great video. Sadly, I found that the hinges of my 47 GMC are slightly different. On the 47, there is only a single spring with 2 loops as opposed to the single loop "ram's horns" which seems to be the norm shown in your video. Any idea where I can source the double loop spring?

where ya get your door strip

Really good thanks

I am guessing I needed the small profile as my door won’t close now. Seal looks great though,

Couldn’t you just put the original bracket on the other side

Jerry what is in and used to clean around the door.

I enjoy watching your videos. My only problem is I wish you would take more closeups of each step you do. It is difficult sometimes to fully understand what you are doing without seeing the part up close.

I have a 48 pick up. I need help adjusting door hinges. It looks like I need to enlarge the slots in the hinges!

Cool

hey Tom Fox i agree with you. I install my seals following instruction from this video but door don't close so now i have to buy i new seals to install it as you did. Tom Fox where did you buy your door seal? i have a 1952 chevy truck

i got a door seal for my chevy 1952 and install it in the right side you describe but the door do not close. The gap between door and cab is to tight so i need a thinner seal about 9/16" wide x 1/5" height so would you tell me if your seal are thinner and where to buy them?

Good video!

We're did you put the bushings that you got from napa

thanks for the detail, it saved my hinges! Btw, what are the wheels on your truck? I would love to find some for my 49 3100 AD.

Thanks for the video. The close-up shots are especially useful.

Thank you for this video. Tackling this project this morning. Appreciate your help!

Man, I think this guy is over the top ripping through his presentation. Slow down as liiittllllee.

Please note: The Filling Station sells two different seals, the stock-type #C-145 and a smaller profile version, #70-331. If you have tight door gaps, 3/8" or less (check with softened clay around the door), order the smaller profile seal, #70-331. The smaller seal is twice the price but it can save you from having to reapply the seal if your doors won't close properly after installing the original-type seal. However, the smaller seal may not seal the door opening as well as the larger C-145 seal. The Filling Station can mail you samples of each if requested. Contact them at 800-841-6622.

do you have a part number for the pins or are they a common part you can get at parts stores?

Great video. I can not get any of the old pins out. Is there a secret? Heating did not help.

Really good informative video on how to install weather stripping. Great job

Thanks for this video. Simple and professional. I was able to attack the job with confidence after watching.

How much material do I need to do the same on my truck.

Are you still rebuilding 1954 Chevy truck hinges if so I need a price and were to ship thanks

good video!!!!

Now that I’ve done the weatherstrip it binds up where the hinges are and the door can’t shut. What now?

I have a straight axle with 49-54 spindles, do you have a rebuild kit for the kingpins bushings etc

Classic Parts shows it the way Tom Fox, in the comments, suggests it goes. I must agree because if the long side faces the cab it needs to slip on contact with the cab which it will not do because of friction, but if it faces the length of the cab it pretty much just flattens out with no need to slip. Cut an 1 inch piece and try both ways to push it down, you will see what I mean.

I have a 67 Buick Electra coupe, would you recommend that I insulate the Doors, and the side panels. I worrie about water, damp and then frost. Could IT damage the doors. If moist and water rolls down from the window openings? Btw I live in Denmark, Europe. Where the weather is cold, wet and damp all year around almost.

Thank you for showing us a project for our generation (67-72) of trucks! I'll have to do this to my '68.

I just finished installing my weatherstripping in this manner on my well-kept 51 and the doors shut perfectly. mwoolston100, I'm sorry you had to go through that nightmare, but this video shows the correct orientation, because I checked it against my deteriorated but original weatherstripping before proceeding.

Thank You for Providing Me with This Video where NOW I will be Able to Install a:" Door Gasket on My: '50's Chevy Truck"..

Great video! I feel more confident to do this project now.

Finished first door, video was very helpful. One thing I would mention, as you pull your rubber off the 2x4 coil it becomes twisted after a few feet which is a hassle. Would be better to arrange some kind of roller rack; I'll try a paint roller on my second door. I also knocked together a sort of turntable out of 2x4's and some casters I had, pivoting on the umbrella hole in a patio table- made it easier to work around it in my cramped garage. Window tracks were comparatively easy.

Hey Tom Fox, any tips on removing the weatherstrip adhesive on fresh paint? This has turned into a nightmare. Spent all that time preping and painting the pickup and now I have to scrape adhesive off because the orientation was wrong!

I installed the weatherstripping following your instruction and the door would not shut because the weatherstripping was too thick on the long edge and will not compress. I did more investigation and I agree with Tom Fox, on the bottom, the long side goes to the door and you turn it 90 degrees going around the side with the long edge on top facing out. I wish I would have looked deeper before I put it on because getting the adhesive off is almost impossible on fresh paint (still having trouble - this cost me over a week - reordering and scraping)!!!!!

Very nice, comprehensive video. Please! Do one for window track installation!

Props my man thx for the vid.

Great video!

Thanks jerry your video is awesome it helped me out a lot!👍🏻😎I have a 1951 Chevy truck in bend Oregon thanks Ray Davies😎👍🏻
