I was wondering if there is a gasket between the back of the front fender (where it wraps around the the front of the cab)and the cab cowl? I have looked on some of the sites to see if they sell one but haven't found it yet.

In any event it would not be difficult to make one if you want it. But any gasket material will retain water and be a potential rust trap. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 422 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 422 | A fender welt goes from the very bottom edge of the front fender until the cowl meets the hood. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2009 Posts: 30 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jul 2009 Posts: 30 | Thanks I appreciate the information.
