Sliding Window Sweeps

Post by mjk1040 »

Trying to locate the sliding window sweeps. Been on the Taylor sight and can not seem to locate it. This is the track that looks like it has brushes on it.

I found it by the roll at home improvement centre up here in Canada called Rona. I don't know if they are in the US. It was a arduous process to get the old out and new in but well worth it.

I wonder if mine used the same thing? Do you have a pic? I never thought I might be able to replace it but would be interested if I can find it somewhere.

What is the "Taylor site"?

Well I found this place, http://www.crlaurence.com/, it has it for older cars, but still searching. It helps if you have the correct name for it. I thought someone had already found it somewhere on here, but I can't seem to find the thread. Think it's called Auto Glass Channels. http://www.crlaurence.com/crlapps/showl ... 9748&pom=0

Ok, just found it on Rock Auto, going to have to take and old piece out and measure it first to see if it will fit in the existing channels. Would really like to go with plain rubber, but afraid it will bind on the glass and make it hard to slide the window.

I need to replace the sliding window edges too. Looks like mold and crumbles from age spill out when I clean them. I am also interested in replacement rubber trim that seals around the fixed portion of the long sliders on both sides aft. Recently, I have found this rubber trim hanging from the window and it appears to have dry rotted from the larger piece sealing the windows. Additionally, I would like to ask if the window edges from Defender would also work on the aft cabin slider above the swim platform. Any Ideas Viper?

I don't know if those will work there. I think that window/hatch is an extruded frame but I could be wrong. It's probably a Bomar Pompanette unit. You can try contacting them. If you contact Carver with a hull number, they can supply you with the part number and supplier info. TaylorMade may be able to help with the rubber trim.
