The weatherstripping on my 91 XJ is pretty thrashed and it is causing lots of wind noise. There are a couple of parts where there is a small gap between the weatherstipping and the door frame. What is the best way to go about replacing the stipping. Are there any querks I should know about and would it be better to go OEM or aftermarket universal weatherstipping. TIA

I have used JC WHITNEY catalog to find exact fit replacement weather stripping on other vehicles .I would assume they got something for jeep.

I checked the dealer last year sometime and they wanted 36.00 per door. Ouch, I need all four and the hatch also. I'm waiting for a decent late model XJ to hit the wrecking yard here.
