40 Pickup Upper Door Felt Strip Question ....
Does the upper door felt strip slip into the front door channel piece or is it cut off at the top of it?
Thanks for any help you can give ..... Also - for the horizontal felt strips - are the clips put into the door holes then crimped to the felt strip or are they clipped to the strip first then popped in? Thanks again .... |

This may help. Looks like it lost a lot of resolution. I can email you the higher res copies if you want.

Re: 40 Pickup Upper Door Felt Strip Question ....
This is the best info I've seen for getting this done on the pickups.
I'll be replacing my door glass and runs soon, and sure can use any info I can glean before diving in on it. Unfortunately, I can't read the Dennis Carpenter text. 38bill, PM inbound.

1- install the vertical channels 2- make some of my “stands” to hold the glass just under the top of the door to allow felt strip installation. I drilled holes I the door to hold them in place (check pic) 3- tape up the top of the doopr and slide the door glass into the door with the front edge of the glass pointing down 4- rotate the glass so it’s in the felt channels and in it’s normal horizontal position resting on the door glass stand(s) 5- install the horizontal felt strips and upper door glass channel surround 6- I lined up each felt strip and marked where the clips go and I installed the clips first then popped them into their respective clip holes 7- Once done I pushed the glass up and the vertical channels provide enough tension to hold the glass in place 8- I rotated the riser bracket to about 3/4 fully open position and slipped it into the door 9- I popped the arms into the left and right channels 10- I lifted the window by hand, gently getting the riser into it’s position 11- I installed the five screw bolts but kept them loose 12- I checked window travel, making adjustments with only two bolts tightened until it all worked smoothly 13- tightened all the screw bolts Sorry for the skewed pics ..... Onc the stands were installed it took about 2 hours taking my time
