Does anyone have any problems with 41-46 windshield gaskets leaking when it rains? I got new gasket, but it seems bigger than the original, :confused: and does not fit good. I see they make a gasket that the ends are bonded together, would this be better? Does someone sell a good fitting one, any tips on adjusting hinges and frame so it won't leak.

I put a one piece rubber gasket on mine about 14 years ago and it still doesn't leak. It fit tight on the frame and when the windshield is closed, should fit fairly even on the body all the way around. I can't remember who I bought mine from, but seems like it was Steele rubber company. I don't have the 2 drain holes open on mine, but that might help the water drain out on yours.

I bought three diferent ones for my 37 till I got a made in the USA one from Steele Rubber. Its a softer rubber that will let the window come clear closed. The problem with the other two were to hard of rubber. I was afraid the glass was going to crack trying to pull it in. Joe
