Don,
After replacing all wind wing gears, replace the windwing rubber (steele) as that last inch of closing with old hard rubber provides so much resistance it can overstress/break even your new non-potmetal teeth. Word of caution to the wise. If you cant source a special shape gasket, dont use Armorall as it is a look-good bandaid that doesnt rejuvenate the rubber; it is a good topical to preserve fresh rubber. Try Aero Cosmetics Rubber Care...this actually penetrates and reconditions the outer layer of a rubber item and is used on aircraft cockpit seals, etc

Yep...all new rubber will be done. There are two items that I can't source due to my car being the 138CD instead of the 120.
1) rear wing window rubber - my windows are substantially longer than the 120. I'm investigating if I can utilize two sets of the 120 seals from Steele and join them to make one set. 2) running board mats - there just aren't enough of the 138s out there for justify the cost to any on the vendors to produce them.

Yeah, I came across their site last year. I’ve tried reaching out several times, but haven’t been able to reach anyone or get a response. I have them on my list to try again.

Well, I sent an email to runningboardrubber.com along with some photos. This time I received a very quick response. I’ll be talking to them more tomorrow.
