Mike Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Burrrr, You can keep it out their..... we don't need any here in TN. Do you have any cover for that deserving Mack? Looks as if the window is down. That lets the water out when the snow thaws. LOL When I first got my Mack, I was asked if I noticed if the windshield leaked. I thought to myself how did they know? They told me all of the B Model Macks leaked. That was comforting. mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/7220-first-snow-today/#findComment-27149 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is relatively easy to ensure there is no water intrusion with just a little time vested into the project.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

LOLmike Ain't nobody can fillet and cook up a "Slab of Lab" dinner using only a chainsaw with "finess" like ole Rob can. I'll have none of this black on both sides and pink in the middle shit neither. By-product of using this animal is that I won't have to listen to the damn thing no more.

The parts that are mounted to the inner, and outer shell of the door is called "flocking", "cat whiskers", or "belt weather strip". The clips are mostly generic in nature and any good glass company that deals in automotive glass should be able to help you. JC Whitney also is an outlet for the home craftsman. The wing window rubber seals are just that, seals. These are very expensive, (almost $200.00 american) and are specific to the truck type. There are a couple of vendors that specialize in reproduction of these parts and I'm sure Barry can steer you the right direction.Get that cab covered to lessen your future headaches since you don't want to give that truck to me.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
