Well my hatch seal on the RT-622 was falling apart from day one and did not seal well so I finally sourced a better seal and have them in stock.

Thanks

Good job with the extra length. Mine was replaced under warranty and had to be spliced. it was 8 inches short from the factory

Yea, I get them all mixed up RT RS ST GS BS can't keep them straight in my mind :banghead: I guess that is why I have such a hard time remembering names.

Hi pickelhead, I waved when you drove by my shop on the way to SpyderFest! Next time you pass through Poplar Bluff drop on by for a visit if you have time.

The rear seal is $30 with shipping and the front seal is $20 with shipping.

I would have stopped, but I was told you lived way out in the sticks. As to the seals, are these better than the originals ( that leak when it rains hard) and how do I get the money to you for them?

Well, I'm 1 1/2 miles off the Hwy 67 and about 1/2 mile of that is chat (crushed limestone). When Doug and his wife came by I came out to the highway and picked them up.

Comparing the OEM seal to the one I have the attachment of the tube part is much stronger on the one I have. If your tube is not loose on the U part then you might just need to pull it up a bit where it is leaking. I understand that the hatches are not very true sometimes.

You can order them from my Spyder Store (http://gnipsel.com/spyderstore/).

I just got back from Lamonster's BBQ in Springfield and found the carpet about halfway back was damp. It was parked at the motel for about 24 hrs during the torrential downpour and I had rode a day in the rain getting there. I pulled everything out and after a day there was still some damp parts. Pulled the carpet and found the little pockets in the front were almost full of water. I wiped everything out and letting dry some more. Now I'll order the new seals. Hopefully those will cure the problem.
