Ramcharger, Trailduster & Power Wagon Grrrr!! Tough Trucks! The Dodge Ramcharger and Plymouth Trailduster were full size SUV's that had good looks and brute strength. The Dodge Power Wagon was comparable to them in toughness, but came in pickup truck form only.

Default 78 ramcharger roof seal and stock roll bar

I apologise if this has been posted before. I'm a proud new owner of a 78 ramcharger. 3 speed auto 400 big block. The stock roll bar has been removed and finding one has proven very difficult. Was wondering if anyone knows the dimensions and angles so I can build one? Also I can't seem to find a seal kit for the roof. Previous owner just gooped a bunch of caulking to make a seal. Thank you in advance for any info someone may have

Welcome to the forum. The top seal is no longer made.

You best bet to to find rubber truck cap tape and tape it to the top, or use garage door bottom weather stripping.

Hopefully someone will chime in about the roll bar.

Thank you for the reply. That's very unfortunate about the seal. IDK if this is something you may have done before but do you have any tips for the 2 funky shaped seals on the top of the windshield in the corners?

Tips regarding what about them? Fixing? Replacing? LMC truck does have door and window seals if you need new ones.

I should have specified better sorry. Replacing the seal caps on top of winshield frame to the roof. If I remember correctly they are a kind of triangle shape

You can try here they probably wont have an oem replacement but they may have something you can use.
