Thanks, we're glad you found us! Good luck with your project!

great video thanks for your time. the only thing i did differently that made this much easier was spread open the channel, then slipped the seals in and then carfully closed the channel. only rivet needed is for the pivot and it made it super easy to install. i also painted mine and with care it didnt mess-up my 2k paint i sealed them with. hope that helps guys and gals

I've been wanting to do this but didn't want to tackle it because of lack of information on those. Your video is awesome as they always are. Now I feel pretty confident to do this. Mine needs painted while it's apart. Thanks

It's really not that hard. Most difficult thing is getting the new rubber on the frame, and replacing the two rivets at the bottom of the frame where it attaches to the division bar. Aside from that it's just time.

This isnt too bad. I can actually do this with the window still in the truck

Great diy video!! At 8:30 in this video you refer to a part that is attached by tabs to the back inside side of the upper part of the window glide rail channel. Does it include the rubber seal on the inside of the vent window opening that fits down into this channel? In my 78 Big 10 the rubber part is somehow attached to the channel by rivets. The rubber part needs to be replaced. I guess that the metal channel and the rubber gasket may have been factory-assembled as one piece. What is this piece called? Need the part name or number to try and find a replacement. Thank you. Keep doing a great job!!

Once you place the vent glass into the vent window frame assembly does the window have to sit in between the weatherstripping the whole way round or does in sit on the outside of the weatherstripping?

The vent will be the deepest part in the weatherseals on the door and cab, as well as the toughest to do. So yeah we would recommend starting there and working outwards from that.

The frame that holds the glass on my truck is completely rotted, and I just got done installing the weatherstripping on the doors that I got from Brothers, I didn’t realize how how bad the vent frames are

Hello Diesel I thought Brothers was open on Saturday but no contact question do you know if Brothers have or anybody. Else that'll have the long felt liner that goes into the outer channel I don't see him replacing nor mentioning anything about it thank you.

My glass is broken but everything else is still there. Do I need to take it all apart or can I just put the glass into the metal frame while still in the door? Any help would be appreciated

You can just replace the glass while it's still in the door. It's difficult, but can be done.

So I bought the new weather strip for my k10 and when I was disassembling it the long side of the vent frame/rail that the rivets connect had a felt-like-insert in it. I had to remove that first (which broke into a million pieces due to its age) to access the tabs on the bottom side to remove the weather stripping. Is this a separate weather strip/felt component?

Yes, that's part of the Door Glass Channels. They will be different depending on the year of your K10, here's a link to all the options: bit.ly/2LH6VyC . We also have a video detailing the installation of those Glass Channels which can be found here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pJV606OoctGwY6g.html

Can you use a rivet gun instead of the rivet and hammer?

I apologize for bumping an old video. But I ordered the rubber kit, as well as new vent latches for my 87 Chev. I'm having a rough time sorting out how to get the vent latch together. It seems like there are more parts in the bag than I need. There are two grommets, two differently sized flat washers. Is this just to accommodate the differences in the latch holes in various years? I just use the grommet that best fits my application?

Well we know our seals work right, that's for sure. Part of the reason we do these videos and installations is for that exact reason, we get to test our own products while offering a helpful resource for our customers too. If these seals didn't work, we'd switch manufacturers and test those. We are constantly doing R&D on our products to make sure when you get them they work.

So, I just completed all of this and once I got the vent back in my 86 C10, I noticed that the weather stripping doesn't sit flush with the vent window. This allows wind noise and water to leak in. I checked to make sure the weather stripping was in the grooves as it needed to be and it was. Is there a way to get the weather stripping to sit down tightly on the vent window to eliminate the wind noise and water leaking?

I have ordered from 2 companies. LMC and 1A auto . The the inner weatherstripping on my 76 C10 the clips on both companies parts were not made the same as original. They are to shallow and do not let it fit correctly. Both companies parts looked like they came from the same place in Taiwan. I sent a picture to Brothers via email to see if theirs was correct. No answer. Emailed again. Someone named Marks asked for my phone number so he could call. Still have no call. It would be nice if someone would look at this issue and correct it. I guess I can always do a review on the companies of with the BBB
