This is what the Dodge parts guy/gal would have looked at.

Good luck.





And that's it.

My driver's vent latch is worn out (shaft).

Hey Ken, do they have the rubber gasket that seals the wing window when you close it? Mine leaks on both doors and water runs down the door and soaks my carpet. As a result of that my carpet is rotted and falling apart. So far that is the only leaks i can find in the cab. This cab style is notorious for leaks. My 82 stepside did the same thing. They also leak around the cowl and leakdown the firewall inside the cab. I was told the gasket around the wiper motor is the culprit. I've seen door gasket and seals around door windows but none for wing vent.

So is that 43546467 weatherstrip the triangular piece for the vent window?

Is it still available for a reasonable cost?

Samiam4 the gaskets are available from Dodge. I have a friend who is the manager for Rick Hendrick Dodge Auto body here in North Carolina and i just gave him my vin # and he got the gaskets. If i remember they were about $125.00 for two gaskets. There are other body / trim parts still available. I hope that helps. Part # is 4354607 and they are made in USA!! I hope that number is good i took it off of packaging. If not let me know.
