Anybody ever replace a rear window gasket? Mine is hard as a rock and appears to be pushed in at one corner. I also have the 2" gap at the bottom middle. I was going to seal the gap with quick cure urethane but if the price is right Id rather replace.

I see Applied has one on their site ($104.70), not the original type with the pull out wire. When I spoke with Sirum, they claim there is not a replacement available.

Rather find this locally if it's possible. Figure there'd be other RV's, School Buses, Space Shuttles that have the escape ring feature.

What say the collective?

Jim Bounds claimed he had one. Cinnebar maybe too?

Most are re-used when they replace a window. Mine was last year. Has like a 1/2” gap, and the window installer used some goop to fill that void.

I love driving down and seeing Jeff. Jeff Sirum has a lot of donner coaches
that he could pull an original one from and sell you that! I'd give him a
call.
