Title: Lock Pillar Seals
Post by: 340Challman on January 12, 2025, 10:42:21 AM
Does anyone know who sells the correct lock pillar seals. I'm not sure where I got mine, but they are not correct. The ones at Detroit Muscle are incorrect as well. There should be a screw that holds the seal close to the quarter panel. Note the empty screw hole.

I got a driver side one for sale on eepay.  It shows an extra a 4th hole on the side-facting flange,  Yours appears to be missing this hole.

Yours appears to be missing some material in this area, too.

Agreed. No idea who sells the correct ones new?

Most of the vendors are selling the Metro Rubber ALP7000 for the U-Jamb seal.  Steele Rubber offers the U-Jamb seal, but not sure if it is any more correct than the Metro piece and it is three times the price.  There is an even cheaper variety available that does not have the metal insert, but most vendors have pretty much quit carrying them due to the poor fit.  Your best bet is to find a good used one.  If the metal insert is pulling loose from the rubber coating, just use some weatherstrip adhesive to bond things back together.
