Title: 1959 Fleetwood Series 75 Air Intake Grille Install
Post by: FleetwoodMark on August 30, 2023, 12:55:06 AM
I had to replace the wiper motor. In doing so I had to remove wiper arms and air intake grille. For the reinstall of the grille, the Shop Manual refers to Inner and Outer Sealing Strips.  While removing the Grille I didn't see anything resembling an Outer Seal Strip; the Inner Seal Strip was kind of a thick hardened bead of some putty or something.  I'm not finding anything online suggesting these are rubber gaskets or seals available for purchase.  Until I can figure this out I'm stymied on re-installing the grille.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
