Who do ya'll think produces the best door seals for the Bronco. Although in a perfect world all things would be equal but that does not seem to be the case with these repro parts and seals. Need some before BYOB and wanna order sooner than later. Thanks!!! ;D

The cheep ones JBG sells are nice. I just put them on my glass tub. They have pish pins along the bottom and the two top corners screw in. The pass door worked out ausome but the drivers door is really tight. Im pretty sure it has to do with the glass being too thick so maybe ill sand down the glass a 1/8"- 3/16" so i dont have to slam that door so hard. It took me a while to figure out how they go on so here is a pic. Just so others know mine was tight from the middle back, the front half was fine. ( i pulled the seal and tried both half's to see what area made the door shut hard.)

From what i have read the new seals make for a hard shutting door.

Tbd bknbronco. I have the jbg ones and one is damaged but otherwise they do make shutting the door more difficult / tight!

On my second set of JBG seals in 20 years. They tend to shrink in the AZ heat after awhile but how that compairs to others I don't know.

Decided to go with Tom's on this one this time. Every thing I hear about them is always positive and have had great experience es with them. Hopefully they fit well!
