i have the same exat rust..this is my next project. good vid.

Just did all my window frames, and I would advise getting brand new seals everytime as you're just inviting future problems using old seals! They're only $35-$45 each...so why risk it. It's a VERY difficult job putting in new seals on some of the windows, like the rear drivers wardrobe window, especially if you have the wardrobe...but I did it myself so it isn't impossible!

Looks great! Next time try instead of the silicone to inject in mineral oil. Reapply every couple years. It will not lock in any moisture like the silicone will. Rust belt user experience :)

Nice repair!

very inspiring

Really used video. Thank you!

We're living parallel lives. My van has a couple spots like that around the windows. I have the same welder too :)

Having a van and that welder are good things to have😂🎉

I like the van with those wheels, really nice. Lot of work to fix that rust but it looks good..

Thanks!! Yes its WORK, but its definitely worth it🎉

I’m thinking since you had the window out might as well replace the seal. Isn’t that the reason it was leaking and caused rust in the first place? Or the rust had been building before and the seal was replaced without repair? If that’s the case then makes sense that you could repair without replacing the seal. I need to do this same job but afraid I won’t be able to get the window back in but you said it should be easy so I should stop being a weak sauce and do it. I also need to order the OEM paint to match before I start this project because I don’t want to have the window out for weeks. I did just get a welder so that should also help. Except mine is a gasless flux mig so hope I can get it to work right. Thanks for the inspiration 😊

I'd advise getting rid of that thing. You're holding up traffic every time you leave the yard. Those are dogs on the highway since way back to 1970. 😅
