I thought the Cityracer stuff was for 40s and 60s. slocruiser makes the 55-specific stuff.
Am I wrong?

So I guess no one has tried them then... I'll be ordering a set to try shortly.

Has anyone here purchased and installed the Cityracer door gaskets/seals?

Yup. Bought some, installed one. Pretty good fit.

I circled it in this picture. I also need one of the metal bars that is in the door between that fixed window and the roll up window. My doors were all taken apart and one side is missing.

Has anyone figured out where to source rubber for the rear 1/4 panel windows? Or an alternate source for the early vent window seals? Without replacing the entire door for one without the vents...I like them.

Yep but John has been out of them both due to supply issues from his manufacturer..

This is the best I could come up with at this point.

Noted Steele Rubber was selling similar rubber but not the right dimensions. Wasn't cheap, had to buy two sets. Figured we could use pieces of both to make one for each side. The profile worked. Unfortunately the only way to do this is to splice it. The fit is tight, made splices as tight as possible, should be weather tight?

Now that seems to be a good solution even if a bit pricey. Thanks!

could use some weatherstrip glue on the cut/splice area

Those are for the FJ55 Commando

 

[DTC72]

I 100% need the quarter panel window rubber. Been checking with John at SLO but out of stock. I was planning on making two out of 4 smaller pieces from Steele Rubber products, but maybe I will try these from Indonesia. It’s only money!

 

[WarDamnEagle]

So what does that mean? I saw the Commando but just assumed it was a market specific designation and didn't mean it had different dimensions (other than the rear barn doors).

The literal way in which you read Mud posts leads me to ask. Are you an engineer?

Not a jab but I write tech like a salesperson and an operator so I usually see your wheels turning .....

No worries. I grew up on a farm in central Alabama so I was taught to be simple and handy long before I learned to be complicated and useless.
