I bought windshield and backlight gaskets from AK a while back and was surprised at what I found. When I bought the new windshield, it is about 1/2 as thick as the stock '69.5 glass. I had a lot of problems getting it to seal because of this. Seems the new glass is stronger and better, but the gasket maker is making the gaskets to the old original specs. It required a 'lot' of sealer, and about a week of refilling the void before it would seal, and I am still worried about that. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, let's get with AK and let them know.
