Can anyone point me to a Jaguar part number reference that will help me identify all of the oddball rubber parts I've received for the 3.8S?

One of our beloved and trusted suppliers has sent me a major kit with only part numbers on the packages. I've been working with it but tonight I got a back order with a totally obscure part number and description. Too obscure for my childlike mind....

This particular part is RT1058/24, Scraper seal pair. After several hours I still haven't found an illustration on any catalog site marking it's location.

Is there a Saloon parts manual somewhere and should vendors spend a ton more money supporting our niche market?

I'm not condemning our supplier, just looking for a reference...


OK, I've found a couple of parts manual reprints, anybody have one that can testify whether it will help me identify part number locations? Green cover on the manual.

I guess I should have it regardless, eh?

 

maybe post pictures of the parts ?

do you have a Factory Service Manual or Parts Manual ? (not Haynes please).

I have the Factory Parts Manual and Service Manual in PDF files if you want them, send me your
e-mail via PM. ( 3.8 'S' / S type 1963-1968 )

 

My money would be that it's the rubber strip on the doors that meets the window, called DOOR GLASS OUTER WAIST SEAL. Rt1058 on the sng Barratt website shows it replaced by bd21073 for the xj and e type and that is the glass seal.

 

Oh, and they have a downloadable and searchable parts catalog here SNG Barratt - The Ultimate Jaguar Parts Specialist

 

I wonder if the part number supercession is why it wouldn't come up? At any rate, it looks like it would be a window outer seal. I'll have a look at that this evening. Thanks

Jose, I'll send you an Email...

Thanx guys, Steve

 

Ewwww, Looks like this mystery piece is indeed the outer window scraper/seal. Also looks like an incredible turd to replace after the door is asembled. Anybody done this? The rear doors look even worse than the front....

 

I have my Mk 2 doors fully stripped (for repaint). I have ordered those outer rubber seals to prevent water ingress (after spending weeks eliminating the rust in all 4 doors). Clearly, the door drain holes alone are not up to the task........

The nature of the clips that secure the original felt type seal suggest the door glass needs to be removed (probably not what you wanted to hear, Steve).

Out of interest, the Australian Mini has similar seals, fitted to the top of the door skin by the use of an "S" shaped clip, which permits easy replacement, and which I intend to use. I will try to find picture/part number/supplier.

Cheers & beers.
