This kit is a complete door weatherstrip kit for both doors on 1949 (late)-1955 (1st Series) Chevrolet & GMC trucks. This kit comes with the THICKER profile door weatherstrip C-145. Kit includes: Door seals 28 ft. of thicker profile door weatherstrip C-145, 1pr. cab step seals CV-313 and 1pr. cab windlace CV-30 for both sides (this windlace mounts into spot welded channel around the door opening inside the cab). 1949 was a transition year for the cab step seal and cab windlace. Compare to your originals before ordering.
Over the years we have found that two different thicknesses of door edge weatherstrip are required for 1947-1955 (1st Series) Chevy & GMC trucks. We offer two different thicknesses to allow for loose or tight fitting door gaps. C-145 is the taller 11/16" height compared to 70-331 which is 1/2" tall. Use the K-124 kit if your door clearances require a heavier seal. Use K-124T if you have tighter door clearances and require thinner door edge weatherstrip.
Don't know how to tell if you need thicker or thinner? Use some clay or putty pressed into the door edge where the weatherstrip will mount. Close the door and measure the thickness of the putty. Keep in mind that each door has 14 feet of weatherstrip and the pressure to close the door is increased exponentially as the weatherstrip gets thicker .
This part fits most 1949 1950 1951 1952 1953 1954 1955 Chevrolet Trucks; exceptions may apply. Please read the complete description to see if this part fits your specific vehicle and application.
