DPDISXR4Ti Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Now that I'm actually getting closer to having Project XRBrati painted and road-worthy, I'm thinking ahead to the occasional use of the camper top. The original gasket that goes around the perimeter is toast and I don't imagine it provided much paint protection even when new. I'm wondering if someone might have found an after-market gasket which provides a little more cushion and wider "footprint" to it. This is all the more important given the somewhat warped condition of my topper. I need to lessen the pressure points on the body and have something that will fill the gaps.

skishop69 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Get a good look at what's on it and search through JC Whitney's weatherstrip section for door jam stripping that matches. You will want the kind that os maent to attach to pinch weld around the door frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPDISXR4Ti Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Thanks for the feedback. I'll have to look next time I'm at Carlisle as I seem to recall there are vendors that specialize in that sort of stuff. Anyone know what length I need? The car's in the body shop right now and it's about 120 degrees where the cap is in the attic over the garage! I'm thinking about 15 feet.
