Re: New guy with a couple questions
Most of these gaskets are produced by only a few manufactures but there is a wide range in the quality of the gasket. I bought a gasket for one of my 61's from whitney and it was very stiff and hard to work with. Took three trys to finally get it installed.
Bought one from Dearborn classics for the one I just installed and the rubber was very easy to work with and the unit slipped right in on the first try. It is also very flexable after it is installed so it may be that it will last longer.
There is a black sealant in a tube that I got from an auto glass place that I use on mine to seal it and to make it go in easier.
