Vehicle

Features

  • U-shaped rubber profile
  • Fits in inner frame windscreen groove
  • Holds glass in place
  • Replaces aged original rubber
  • Fit carefully to prevent tearing

★ New reproduction rubber is more flexible and easier to install than old NOS stock. Use soap or glass cleaner as lubricant during fitting.

Installation notes

First fit the rubber in the groove of the inner frame. Use soapy water or glass cleaner as lubricant. Work patiently - especially in the corners. Avoid sharp tools that could damage the rubber. Optionally allow new rubber to soften first in warm water.

Compatibility

Note: inner frames of different WWII open cab trucks may vary in dimensions. Check that the rubber fits your specific frame before finally installing the glass. Old hardened rubber may crack during fitting - preferably use new rubber.

Historical context

WWII military trucks with open cab used a fold-down windscreen frame with inner frame in which the glass was secured with a U-shaped rubber gasket. This simple but effective system was standard on Dodge WC-series, GMC CCKW and similar vehicles.
