Series 1 Door Seals

Looking for some door seals at the moment for Ol' ute - Google lead me back to good ol' aulro:D.


Did you have any luck gromit? Those sketches are very handy. I was going to try scotts.

Like you I was hoping not to glue - although Ellard seems to have got some reasonable results with the Clark Rubber product





bifurcated - learn something new every day.:D

Sleepy,

Scotts have a 'Land Rover' profile and exactly the same seal (even the same part number) is also available from Clarke Rubber.
I bought mine from Clarke Rubber and then never got round to fitting before the trip to Cooma, in fact it's still not fitted because I didn't track down the tubular rivets needed.
The seal is not an exact match but good enough. To mount as per original you need to either salvage the steel strips from your old rubbers or replace them if they have rotted away. Then source the bifurcated & tubular rivets (or resort to pop-rivets) to fix it in place.

Best of luck.

Colin

Thanks for the update Colin,

I'll pop into Scotts - they are just up the road from me. :)
Should be able to salvage the strips, only have a bit of surface rust.

There is a major rubber company in Sydney where I purchased all rubbers for my 48, not a problem except for the window frame seal.
