Rub Rail Insert
Author: hemi354az (Show all albums)

Pictures of some of the rub rail inserts I have tried. The one that almost fits is 7/8" size. One inch fits but sticks out way too much to match the "end caps". I put name address etc of 7/8" manufacturer in a regular Mechanics Corner entry "Rub Rail Insert".

7/8" Barbour #98175. This pic also shows why a 1" piece will not fit up into the back inside top and bottom corner as nice as the 7/8" piece does . . . NO ROOM.

Original Rub Rail and several short pieces of Barbour(B) #98175, and Taco(T) #V12-0342. Note how the B and T both stick up higher than the Original.

Note "height" of old original rub rail and end cap, verse, new piece of 7/8" Barbour #98175 Silver, and end cap. Otherwise fit is fine.

Picture of 1" rub rail wher I tried to file "extra" to make it come down to end cap height. No way to ever get it smooth and shiny.


Picture 2 - Max slot width is 1".

Picture 1 - Max rail slot is 1".

Min width of rail slot is 9/16".

40 yr old rub rail is "now" a little over 3/4".


1" on the left, and 7/8" on the right.
