The small vent window rubbers are reproduced...though not cheap. I believe it Steele, Metro who makes them. I found mine on E-bay. They states they are for 78-86 I believe. Worked fine in my 84 doors...not sure if they can be made to work with the newer doors or not

No reproduction on those ones. If you can find a chrysler part number you might be able to come up with some NOS ones.

I bought a ratty set of crewcab rear door just for spare parts...and those seals.

My local auto window shop thinks that the can re do them. He said the black seal might not be exactly the same but it will do the job he thinks

Nope you can use the front door seals on the back doors. Look at my posts on this thread...I show what I did to make the window sweeps work.

Sorry for the confusion, I was talking about the wind shield, the main front window. Mine is cracked and needs to be replaced.

Nope the front windshield on a crewcab is the same as all the other rams....so readily available. Take it to your glass shop and have them do it. But ask them how they will seal the window. If the just install the window into the seal it will leak. They need to put sealant on the inside, and outside of the new rubber seal, and then install the glass. Dirty, messy job, but the only way to do it right.

I was lucky to find a small glass shop where the owner had been in the business 30+ years. He knew exactly what to do. Before I went to this guy I had tried the bigger chain glass shops and they basically told me to go away...not interested in such old, labor intensive crap.
