Try this link. It is for a pdf file of a catalog where you can get almost whatever you need along the line of weatherstripping. You will need to get a cross section of the weatherstripping you want and match it up. Good luck.

The couple times I've had the rear window out of any of my trucks I was able to just clean it up and put it back in. The rear comes out very easy and does not need to be cut to remove it.

I'm in the same boat as 800xl here, cept I have replacement glass for the rear. I'm going from the stock slider to a solid back window. I hear the back glass is easy to remove but I have no idea where to start, cept cutting the gasket and I dont really want to do that unless I can find a replacement which so far hasn't been easy.

Some guys have said that they just get inside the truck and brace against the dash with thier back and use thier leggs to push the window out. Problem with that for me is that I dont have a dash to brace against and my leggs arent that long to reach from the floor board...LOL any ideas?

the thing is my rear gasket was painted like half painted when the truck was repainted years ago, and that paint dont wanna come off, i tried paint thinner and other things. i tried scraping it off with a razor blade and even doing that it was going to take forever and ever to get it black again.
