With my other truck, I used Jim Carter for the new frame. That was a few years ago. I think his price was over $400 then. I could never get that rubber insert in the divider as well. I ended up setting nuts and washers in fiberglass epoxy. Worked like a charm.

Yeah, I don't understand the oversized freight deal. They come in two pieces. They must intentionally pack it in the biggest box they can so they can justify it. That's why I'm apprehensive about them. I've bought much larger and heavier stuff without the fee.

I met the guy who had the original GM blueprints/recipe for making the window rubber. He told me it was made larger at the edges to make a tighter seal. He was unhappy with the new ones being made. He then lent Jim Carter the originals who apparently sent them to a Chinese manufacturer who promptly lost them. He's pretty upset.
