Re: [Chrysler300] Replace truck weather-stripping?





I agree, verify where the water is coming from before tearing things apart.

The trunk in my G gets water in it after washing or rain, it comes from the deckled emblem. I’m too lazy to put gaskets around the studs. Just dry it off and keep going.

First thing to do is verify the source and cause of leakage, then decide what to do about it.  ----might not be weatherstrip that's the problem.

Hi folks.  I have (I believe) a stupid question, but I’d like your opinion.  I have a survivor 1962 H, so most parts on it are 53 years old.  At my last car show last year, it rained, and it rained, and it rained all day.  When I got home, my trunk had an inch of water in it.
 
So my stupid question is:  Do I replace the trunk weather-stripping in a survivor car?  or just not drive it in the rain?
 
thanks

I agree with Bob.  I had the same problem with the G on a couple of occasions.  The front of the shoe locks against the drum until you wear down that layer of rust.

How old are your brake hoses ? Sounds like they are collapsing internally, causing fluid not to return to the master cylinder.

First nice day here in Dayton OH, so I fired up the 300F to get it out of winter storage.  Engine started up just fine, but the brakes didn't.  When I apply the brakes normally, they totally lock up.  Backing up,  by only a few inches, releases them, but normal stops again result in lock up. Before I tear into the brakes, any suggestions about I might be looking for?  Terry McTaggart
