Title: new henry j owner needs outer rockers
Post by: swade41 on October 05, 2010, 09:32:28 PM

 I just bought a hot rodded 51 henry j and it needs outer rockers and window rubbers all the way around. It actually needs a bit more than that but for now that is what I'm looking for. Any leads on where to find this stuff ?  thanks

All HJ window rubber and many more rubber parts can be purchased at "Rudy's KF Parts" in Ramona, CA. His phone number is 760-789-3608. Sometimes he's hard to get ahold of so be persistent.

Thanks does he have an e-mail or web site ? I think I have located a pair of outer rockers over on the bay.

The rockers/floor pans on eBay are made by a company in Detroit area who used NOS parts from an owner in Canada.  I have heard that they are great parts.

I'm not sure why, but Rudy does not have a website or list e-mail in his 2010 catalogue so you'll have to reach him by phone or snail mail.

Let me know how well they fit. I heard that they do not taper from front to back like they should. They just made them the same width down the lenght. The proper ones narrow as the go from fron to back.

Just holding them up in place they look really good, for 25 bucks each and made in America I'm not complaining. The bends are nice and crisp, 18 gauge steel and the curvature is appealing too.

Can you provide the contact info on the supplier? Is there a part number reference for ordering etc.?

 Anyone have a spare windshield divider ? I can't seem to find one of those either, it wouldn't matter if it's chrome or not. This car is a stripped down model with no trunk or operating vent windows so I'm sure it was just plain steel. thanks
