Door weatherstripping

Post by GRIPTWISTA »

Any help would be appreciated. I installed new outside weatherstripping from classic rubber on my front doors and whenever I roll the windows down the weatherstripping gets stuck to the glass and gets pulled down with the window and wants to pull out of its track. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? Thank you very much

I'll follow this thread. I have the "opposite problem". I just put in a pair of squeeges that "won't get sucked down" and they don't. But they are so tight that I am afraid I'm going to break the handle trying to roll the windows up.

Mine are getting sucked into the window channel but are still very hard to roll up and down as well.

I got mine from Dean (datsunparts.com). They're part number 1972. I'm going to see if there's anything I can do to create just a tiny bit more room in there then commit and glue them in.
