Charlie69 Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 Kieth I believe I have one of the fender to cab mointing rubbers left for a pattern. I will check next week and if I do I will mke you a pattern and mail it to you. I had both side and my dog ate one. IIRC they are the same just a miiror image for the left and the right. #9 provile is a curved piece of rubber. I am going to use pieces of a ten speed inner tube for those. Quote Link to comment

zed1 Posted October 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2016 Charlie, Do you recall how the rubber parts were attached to the body (fender)? Thanks, Keith 1 Quote Link to comment
sebpv Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 theres one running along the upper mating surfaces with holes into it. And one running vertically (double sided foam tape), 1/2in wide. I am confident of the vertical one 1 Quote Link to comment
zed1 Posted October 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I'm focusing on 7&8 for guidance. Thanks, Keith 1 Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 Keith 7 & 8 were just a flat piece of rubber and were held on by contact cement. Item 9was a curved piece of rubber that kept the winshield end of the side of the hood from rattling. As I remember this to was held in place by contact cement. Quote Link to comment

Charlie69 Posted November 5, 2016 Report Share Posted November 5, 2016 Keith it does not take much adhesive it is just to hold it in place. Man I wish my truck was as far along as yours. Beautiful work Keith! Quote Link to comment
