FRONT AND REAR DOORS
INTRODUCTION
This section of the manual contains the service
operations that are necessary for the removal,
installation, adjustment and sealing of door assem-
blies and individual door hardware components.
The procedures are arranged in the sequence that
they would be performed when servicing a door. To
locate specific procedures, refer to the "Door
Index".
Hardware items are divided into three categories.
Those which are common to all doors are found
under "Front and Rear Doors" which also includes
door and side roof rail weatherstrips. Items which
are peculiar to front or rear doors are found under
"Front Doors" or "Rear Doors" respectively.
Door trim service procedures are covered in Sec-
tion 14 of this manual (See index).
Body series or style references in the procedures
are explained under "General Information" in Sec-
tion 1 of this manual.
FRONT AND REAR DOOR
WEATHERSTRIPS-
Both the front and rear doors use nylon fasteners
to retain the door weatherstrips. The fasteners are
a component part of the weatherstrip and secure
the weatherstrip to the door by engaging piercings
in the door panels. The serrations of the fastener
retain the fastener in the piercing and also seal
the openings from water entry (See Fig. 6-1).
On "B" Body Sedan Styles, nylon fasteners are
used around the entire perimeter of the door. On
"A" and "X" Closed Styles, nylon fasteners are
used below the belt line only. Weatherstrip adhe-
sive retains the weatherstrip around the door upper
frame above the beltline (Fig. 6-2).
In addition to the nylon fastener, "B" Body Sedan
Styles use a limited amount of weatherstrip adhe-
sive at the beltline. All styles other than closed
styles use plastic fasteners at the belt.
To disengage nylon fasteners from door panel
piercings use tool J 21104 or equivalent (Fig. 6-1).
This tool permits removal of the weatherstrip
without damaging the serrations on the fasteners so
that the weatherstrip can be reinstalled if desired.
Although a replacement door weatherstrip will in-
clude the nylon fasteners, individual fasteners are
available as a service part.
Removal
1. On all hardtop and convertible styles, remove
exposed plastic fasteners at belt line. On all
" E " body styles, all "B" body hardtop and
convertible styles and "C-39 and 69" styles
(front and/or rear doors), remove door trim
assembly to gain access to weatherstrip fast-
ener (See Fig. 6-3).
2. On sedan styles, use a flat-bladed tool to break
cement bond between door and weatherstrip.
On "B" Body Sedan Styles, weatherstrip adhe-
sive is used for a distance of 9" at beltline
(See Figs. 6-4 and 6-5). On "A" and "X"
sedan
styles,
weatherstrip
is retained by
weatherstrip adhesive completely around door
upper frame (See Fig. 6-2).
3. On all styles, use tool J 21104 or equivalent
to disengage weatherstrip from door where
weatherstrip is retained by nylon fasteners.
Nylon fastener usage is below the beltline on
all styles, and above the belt only on "B"
Body Sedan Styles.
Installation
1. If previously removed weatherstrip is to be
