Window seals

[Renoenvy08]

I remember seeing a write up about replacement door window seals and I can't find it anywhere, if someone could please let me know where that write up is or where they got replacement seals it would be appreciated. Thx

Are you referring to the glass seals in the door or the door to cab weatherstripping?

I found this kit awhile back (https://www.ocautocarpets.com/wn-product/door-kit-10pcs-27830/) I haven't bought them so I can't say how the quality is but the price isn't bad. From what it looks like you might need to take the door apart to replace a few of the seals but it isn't very hard on these trucks.

That's what I was looking for I'll order them tomorrow and let you know how they are. Tyvm

Just had that kit arrive yesterday and hoping to install it later this week. fwiw, jegs.com has it for a couple bucks cheaper, mine was $99 shipped.

Well I guess your looking for all the seals. For the door seals either go Mopar or get a set of 97+ XJ seals. The later models have a far superior seal. Aftermarket seals have generally very loose quality fit. The ones I had did not have the holes in the weatherstripping to release the air when the door closes. The pinch seam trim was also too thick and trim wouldn’t fit correctly. Picked up some oem seals and it’s night and day difference.

I got my seals, run channel and door weatherstripping today. I tried to put the channel in and I couldn't get if to work till I pulled the front piece of glass then it was easy. On another note just got a call from the tranny shop to rebuild my AX-15 and transfer case they want $3300. I'm thinking I'm going to get a tranny off eBay. thoughts?

reman ax-15 no more then 2k. 

and you can rebuild your tcase yourself for under 400 and take a Saturday.

The transmission is stupid simple, don't be afraid of it!  I just did mine.  The factory rebuild manual is very easy to follow and there are many video guides if you get lost. 

Worst case scenario, $200 AX15 kit, $150 transfer case kit, $150 shop press + bearing separator

$500 flat.  So much better than a $2k-3k rebuilt unit, and you get the added bonus of bragging about it when people ask about your truck.  That's why we have Comanches, right?

Novak even sells a brand new ax-15 for about 1600, no way it should cost that much.

A youtube presenter has a tear-apart and rebuild of an AX15 

 

 

I followed this to open up an AX15.

 

There is also Robinsonautomotive on youtube where he breaks down and rebuilds an AX15.  This one is a little slower and the lighting is not as good.
