    I am at a loss to figure out where this piece that is on the table came off my wagon, if it actually did.

    Can someone please give me a clue.
    Thank you ! ! ! 20210503_114718.jpg

    Should have a 1/16” thick 1” wide rubber strip stapled to it.

    thank you. I do not have the rubber. Is it available? all the rubber stuff for mine is dried out and crumbling. How are the staples reinstalled? are they also available?

    Dennis Carpenter has the tailgate and other pieces specific to wagons. They dont have the quarter window weather stripping yet though.

    I found the window weatherstripping at steel produces. Since I have a 2 door, the windows are long. They have a 120" strip available but it is not cataloged. The issue is shipping straight pieces limited to 96". But, they coil the 120" one and it unwinds and fits in nicely. I can dig out a part number is necessary.

    Mine came from Mc Master-Carr. I saved as many of the staples as I could but made the rest from the same diameter wire. Close to a paper clip as I remember. Held them in with old fashion pliers and rolled each end with the tip of needle nose pliers. Easier to roll to the outside than inside. Poked the holes in the rubber with an ice pick to match the ones the factory stamped in.
    I did the windows whiskers the same way...good luck.
