Need help where to get Wayne Windshield Seal

[MaverickHL]

Hello everyone,
I need some help finding parts for my Schooly.
It is a 1992 Wayne 6 window bus.
My windscreens are leaking and I'm also worried about rust under the seals. So I need to take the windscreens out. I have been looking for replacements for a very long time in case the seals get damaged in the process. Does anyone have a source where such seals can be obtained? Or does anyone know whether seals from other vehicles will also fit.
I would be grateful for any information.
Cheers, Micha (from Germany so sorry for my awkward request/english)

I would call around to a few glass shops that cut custom sized flat glass and ask them about it or see if they would look at the bus.

I had a local shop cut a few pieces of glass and asked them if they would be able to replace the windshield in the bus if/when needed, and they made it seem like it wouldn't be a big deal even if new seals were needed.

Some of the seal material may be universal. I replaced a windshield in a Jeep CJ years ago and it was the same stock that fit one of my International trucks. Some of it has a 3/16" round bead of rubber that is the lock ring.

Yeah, that stuff will work on pretty much anything provided that you're putting it into material that is flat and on the same plane as the window material you're using.



I actually used that stuff back around Y2K to put "windows" into my old computers before every tower you could buy had them pre-installed. Nowadays, it's still the same stuff, it just costs more if you buy it for that purpose.

STEELE RUBBER Products. Look there first. Many profiles available. Do not stop. Looking until you have looked at all of the profiles. John Deere tractor cab rubber a recommended seal to me years ago. I bought a 50 foot roll of the stuff. Used a small diameter cord to install the glass, just like the rear cab glass in my 1970 Chevrolet pick up truck. Two person job. One to hold glass, one to pull cord and fiddle with seal. Many you tube university videos.
