Default Freaking door weather stripping!!!

Any of you guys have a horrible wind noise on either doors?

Mine has been getting worse.. Both driver and passenger sides. (its an extended cab if that matters)
but doin 70mph its annoying. 130mph and you cant hear someone talking.

im goin to get some new stripping maybe... just wanted to know if any of yall have this problem??

Thanks!

You have a lot of high speed conversations?

Mines pretty quiet, even at 130.

Has your truck ever been in a wreck?

Do the doors fit well?

My ECSB has rear door windo seal issues. It dosent leak, but it sure does scream at above 80mph. Dealer told me once that theres no speed limits here above like 70, so it shouldent be an issue.. *******. I have a buddy who replaces windows and he said he might be able to replace the weatherstripping for me and might solve the issue. The weatherstripping around the doors isnt hard to do really, got to see it gone last year at the GM SUV plant.. Sometimes one would get missed and an AR or repair guy would run down the line, find it, and fix it on the spot in about 30-45 seconds lol, course thats with the doors off.

yeah mine is the driver side. Its annoying at all speeds. Building a 408 and 4l80 . $130 or whatever for weather stripping just doesn't fit the budget right now

Negatory! Its definatly coming from the Driver and Passenger door. I can put my hand up to the weatherstripping and push on it slightly and the wind noise will almost go away.

acutally the EX Cab windows have never given me a problem..
But cruising at 70 (the Speed Limit ya know) its annoying! i atleast want to hear my exhaust ( no cats, 3" magnaflow)

My buddy works at the stealership, $125 for all the weatherstripping, $120 Fuel level Sending Unit. OH where does all the money go to..
