1967-1972 Chevy & GMC Truck Weatherstrip: Small Window or Large, Glue or Clip, Chrome or Stainless

The 1967-1972 Chevy and GMC pickup is, by our own sales numbers, the single most-restored truck we serve. It's also the one where people most often order the wrong rubber — not because the parts are confusing, but because the truck came three or four different ways from the factory and the difference isn't visible in a search result.

Three decisions decide almost every order on this truck. Get them right and the rest is easy.

Decision 1: small back window or large back window?

This is the big one, and it's the most expensive mistake to make because the gasket goes in with the glass.

These trucks were built with a standard small rear window and an optional large "panoramic" rear window. They take completely different seals, and our supplier says so in plain language on the part itself:

"FITS TRUCKS WITH LARGE REAR WINDOW ONLY, (WILL NOT FIT SMALL REAR WINDOW TRUCKS)"
Your truck has… Part Price
Small rear window wbl1091t $66.78
Large rear window, no chrome trim wbl d1092 t $57.99
Large rear window, keeping the factory chrome wcr 1092 t — currently out of stock, contact us

The large-window gasket comes in two versions because of that last row: one is a plain gasket with no trim groove, and one has the groove that your original chrome trim presses into. If your truck runs the stainless around the back glass and you want to keep it, the plain gasket won't hold it. That version is out of stock as this is written — get in touch and we'll tell you where it stands rather than sell you the wrong one.

Both of these go on the glass first and install by the rope method, and Precision's own note on them reads: "This item is designed to be installed during glass replacement. Precision recommends contacting a professional auto glass technician for installation." We'd echo that. Thirty-dollar rope, four-hundred-dollar glass.

Decision 2: glue-in or clip-in door seals?

The body-side door seal on these trucks is available two ways, and it's genuinely a preference — not a fitment trap.

  • dwp1110-67 — $57.81. The traditional one. Its own description: "SEAL GOES ON THE BODY TO SEAL THE DOOR AND GLUES INTO PLACE JUST LIKE THE FACTORY ORGINAL SEALS." Correct if you want it done the way the factory did it, and it's the cheaper of the two.
  • dwp1112-67 — $61.63. "THIS IS A NEW CLIP INTO PLACE BLACK DOOR SEAL SET, (NO GLUING REQUIRED)." Four dollars more, no adhesive, no mess, and far easier to get straight on the first try.

Both are the pair — left and right front doors. If this is your first weatherstrip job on the truck, the clip-in is the forgiving one.

Doing the whole door at once? dk 1110 67, $128.79, is a door kit — the vendor lists it as "Door seals, beltlines (black) and glass run channels... for the left and right front doors." Its stated applications run the full C10 / C20 / C30 / K10 / K20 range plus the GMC C15/C25/C35 and K15/K25 equivalents.

Decision 3: plain, chrome bead, or stainless window felt?

The window felt — the strips the door glass wipes past as it rolls up and down — comes three ways on this truck, and the difference is what shows when the window is down.

Part What it is Price
wfk1110-67c 4-piece, felts only, with clips and a chrome bead. Fronts only. Also listed for the 1969-72 Blazer and 1967-72 Suburban. $75.21
wfk1111-67a 8-piece, standard black felts plus the front and rear run channels. Also fits Blazer and Suburban. $97.50
wfk1111-67c-1 8-piece with exposed stainless trim beading — the vendor's words: "STAINLESS TRIM SHOWS WHEN INSTALLED" — plus run channels. $95.68

The 8-piece sets are the ones to buy if the glass rattles or tracks crooked, because a worn run channel is usually the actual cause. The 4-piece is fine when the glass moves cleanly and you're only after the seal at the belt line.

wfk1111-67a is one of our best-selling parts across the entire store, which is a decent proxy for "the one most people on this truck need."

The rest of the truck

Windshield

wbl685 — $73.08, listed for the 1967-72 pickup and Suburban and the 1969-72 Blazer / GMC Jimmy. One line matters: "THIS RUBBER REPLACEMENT DOES NOT ACCEPT FACTORY TRIM MOLDINGS." If you're keeping the stainless windshield trim, this isn't the gasket — ask us before you order and we'll check what's available.

Door frame weatherstrip

k8098 — $70.82, a pair, from OER. This is the seal on the door frame itself, a separate part from the body-side door seal above, and it's the one people leave off and then wonder why there's still wind noise up high.

Suburban owners — you have your own part numbers

The Suburban is not the pickup from the B-pillar back, and it's not the pickup at the doors either. Real, separate parts:

While you're in the door

cx1293 — $70.97, complete chrome outer door handle set. If the door is apart for seals, this is the cheapest visible upgrade you'll ever bolt on, and it's the part that's pitted on every one of these trucks.

Order of work

We won't pretend there's one true sequence, but there is a sensible one for this truck: door seals and window felt while the door is apart, because they share the same teardown; glass seals separately, ideally with the glass shop's schedule, because the windshield and back window gaskets go in with the glass; and the door frame weatherstrip last, once the door is back on and adjusted, so you're sealing against a door that sits where it's finally going to sit.
