★ Essential sealing component for all Dodge WC closed cab models. Restores the watertight seal between windscreen and body.
Application
Specific to closed cab models: WC53 Carryall and WC54 Ambulance (1942-1945). Does NOT fit open cab models such as WC51, WC52, WC56 or WC57.
Installation notes
The rubber bead is mounted on the outside of the windscreen frame and fills the gap between frame and cab. Secured by clamping between frame and body. Check during installation that the seal is evenly sealed along its entire length.
Compatibility
Exclusively for closed cab versions. WC53 Carryall and WC54 Ambulance had closed cabs with fixed side windows. Open cab models (WC51, WC52, etc.) use a different windscreen construction without this weatherstrip.
Historical context
