Grant,
It would be helpful to have the required measurements for window rubber replacement, but other than the cockpit windows I've never seen a kit or measurements. Any measurements would have to indicate GMC models and years. For the later model years I think there are five or six different windows, door/kitchen window also came in fixed glass and operable sash.
It'd be easy to measure the window rubbers in place. Tape a string to a chosen starting point and walk the string around following the rubber, then measure the string. The rubber is sold by the foot and it's most certainly counterproductive trying to be precise and end up a little short.
Removing a single window from the coach, disassembling the window and removing the rubber, cleaning up the aluminum, priming and painting the aluminum, replacing all of the rubber and reinstalling a single window is far from a single day affair. It's more time efficient to do all of the windows at the same time. If the main concern is weather and not hooligans, I'd just tape up some plastic.
