I know this is very old video. I installed these on my s10 recently and I have an issue with the front part where it curves by the mirror puckers around the corner and the felt does not contact and seal the window well.
Thanks for the tips, installed your whole cab kit on my son's 88 s-10,after a paint job, went well, and the product is really excellent quality, better than the original equipment.
One little tip when installing the track into the new channel run...Place the track on the outside of the run and pierce the rubber with the tabs on the track. Then when you put the track inside the channel run, the holes are already there for the tabs...and they were centered pretty good.
@@joeking6081 I think most people leave it in cause it's such a pain in the ass to remove the glass from the door my door doesnt even have weather stripping but I promise that window ain't going nowhere XD
@@dah_pizza_boi5965 whats your technique then cause mine must be all wrong but I first had a camaro so it didn't have a whole window frame but I just cant figure out how to easily pop it in and out cause its bigger then the hole im taking it out of and that clip that goes into the weatherstripping makes it a pain
Two 10mm bolts at window base which can be accessed by rolling the window up or down. A plastic clip can be removed from the window base once the bolts are pulled. Roll window 3/4 down. Grab near rear of window and tilt forward (towards truck) the plastic clips on the front and rear of window will pop right out once window is free lift out of door with the window turned down towards ground.
@@PrecisionReplacementParts thank you. I have a 91 s10 in need of both sides to be done, so when you have the time, come on over and feel free to do all of the replacements for me. Again thanx! just sayin, , , , , oh what fun my future looks!?
oh, and it took me and a friend about 3 hours to complete the install. We did it without the special tools to remove the window crank and the door panel.
What is the metal part you place inside the weatherstrip called? I purchased new weather strips but no metal parts came with them and my old ones are badly bent.
chuck berry Those are the glass run channel brackets and are not supplied with the aftermarket glass runs. If you need them, try finding them at a wrecking yard. They are usually in good condition, or you could go to the dealer but they will cost an arm and a leg!
@Michael Wishon We do not make the metal channel that attaches to the glass run weatherstrip. I don't believe anybody reproduces it. You could try car-parts.com to try and find a used one.
I did this on the weekend. Did both doors. Passenger door went easy. The driver side door had a little trouble with the plastic clip that rides in the track not staying on the window. Finally got it on but the top clip catches on the edge of the new seal. I am thinking that a piece of tape over the clip will prevent the seal from trying to go under the clip and then popping the clip off.
might want to pull the window out of the mech and wipe the old greese out put new greese in the track and on roller sence that is what makes the window bind and tear the seal
This is great! I'm doing my window run channels ans this gave me more information than I'd expected. Thanks a bunch!

Where can I get new metal channels ? 1988 S10 Blazer .
Do you have one for the drip rail.?
Yes, you can find it here: www.prp.com/product/detail/352386?SearchType=AGR&sort=u.Name&paginationCount=24&year=1984&make=Chevrolet&model=S10&type=All
Not sure if I even want to tackle replacing the window guides ...
1993 4 door s10 blazer rear door window channel available?
Sorry. It is not available.
Metal channel part number?
We do not make the metal channel, only the rubber glass run channel.
Head to a Pick n Pull or U pull it near you. You should be able to find some good ones off 90-94 years.

Yeah it would have been great to see the glass coming out and back in. These seem to hang on the glass clips.
Exactly. Nobody shows how the glass goes back in with the stupid clips...

@@cameronvandygriff7048 what do you mean? Removing the glass is easy

i know this is 7 years late ,but you leave the window all the why down while doing this?
Yes, because the glass run needs to go down into the door. Leaving the glass down makes it easier to install this.

I still cannot remove the channel . Now my glass is rattling like crazy since I can't finish the job . I really hate GM for build quality !
do you sell the metal channels that go inside the weatherstrip? i looked on your site and i could not find them . (for a 1993 s-10 p/u)
No, we don't sell those metal brackets.
What if you need to also replace the plastic guides that are on the window?
Mike, use these window guides: www.prp.com/product/detail/104294?SearchTypekey=&keyword=windowguide&type=All

FYI, removing the rubber channel is ridiculous .

Wow this seems like a bear. Thanks for posting though very well detailed! Not looking forward to doing this on my S10!
Where do you get the replacement weatherstrip? Only place I have found it for a 93 s-10 is on ebay.

@@jarhead4lyfe thanks for the info. But my truck is long gone now. Good info for someone else, I guess.
@@jbird68 yeah didn't realize till after I commented that post was from 7 years ago lol
Did you remove the wiper strips before remoming the channel? it looks like on mine it has to come out first. Is there a trick to removing it?
Yes, you do have to remove them. th-cam.com/video/Q32mElyoApE/w-d-xo.html

Arent there 2 clips on the window? One at the back top and one at the front bottom?
