toolhaulerSS Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 I have heard mixed reviews on those, so I got some 3/8" x 1/4" thick foam from manards. the stuff you use around windows and doors. I made sure it was close foam so it didn't hold water. I pull the rear window completly off and ran it around the balck seal. put the window back in and it was night and day I had alot of wind noise before now it seals up great. just make sure you get the window back in all the way.

toolhaulerSS Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Ok I just got some pic of the rear window foam. This is really easy guys. this is the foam You can just see the foam on the black window seal and I turned the coners around the whole window You need to pull off the rear window to do it right. Just unhook the latch and carefully pull the glass open more so the plastic "hinges" come out. don't drop the glass! run the foam around the seal and put the glass back in, make sure it is in all the way. bam no more wind noise. I did mine about six months ago and no bad side effects yet. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70chevy03ss Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 HMMMM that must be where my wind noise is coming from. I wish that these windows rolled down though.. Thanks and nice write up.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[email protected] Posted December 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Yeah that looks like it will work pretty slick......I ordered the longer extensions, so I think I am going to put those in as well as the foam. Thanks for the pics helps alot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelleyperformance Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 i have found on several trucks, that its not actually the glass to frame part that causes ALL the wind noise... i have those ebay extensions on mine, and they helped. but on my truck, and a former member's (mario), and two others- we found that the frame was actually installed improperly and IT was the cause of the noise. removed them under warranty and replaced them. done, and gone. foam idea sounds like a good one, if your one who has properly installed windows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelleyperformance Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 if you pull the door panel, youll see that the frame is adhered onto the door, and held in place while drying with some little 7mm screws. youd remove these screws, and proceed to remove the frame as if you were taking a windshield off. its really something a glass guy should do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrtbeat1 Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 i have found on several trucks, that its not actually the glass to frame part that causes ALL the wind noise but on my truck, and a former member's (mario), and two others- we found that the frame was actually installed improperly and IT was the cause of the noise. This is what is wrong with my passenger side window. I had to remove the inner door panel to reconnect the speaker and noticed that the frame was not properly aligned in the window. Haven't had a chance to fix the problem though. May try the foam also when I get around to fixing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
