1975 VENTURA window / door seals

Hi all I have a 1975 Ventura that's been stored in side for a lot of years
I am looking for part numbers and where to get, window seals and door seals
looking for the cranks for the windows (all)
Anyone know where i can find a replacement door window assembly.

I had to repair the door that fell off the hinges wood rotten inside due to window leaking I welded a frame on the outside and then made aluminum frame for the inside to slide inside the outside frame filled with hard styrofoam now good and solid and rain will not rot it out.

Post some pics to help in identifying the windows. On older Hehr windows, the model number is stamped on the sill.

To find window parts such as cranks, torque operators, brackets and seals, check:

- Vintage Trailer Supply
- Vintage Trailer Gaskets
- Pelland Enterprises
- Interstate RV Metal and Supply
- All-Rite Custom Manufacturing

Windows

For the windows the serial number is stamped below the bottom rod usually around the middle. You may need to look close or whip some dust away because they can sometimes be hard to read.

Agree with River Robert. On the Trillium three-pane side windows that look similar to yours, crank the window all the way open and look for model number on the top surface of the sill close to the middle. Cleaning and lots of light may help to view the number.

Looking at your side window, the window pane brackets look different from my Hehr window brackets, so its possible you do not have Hehr windows. If they aren't Hehr windows, I don't where the model number would be located.

Our Trillium windows are Hehr series 4900.

Based on what I can see externally, it looks like they could be Hehr. Go to Vintage Trailer Gaskets using this link. It has pictures that show what the gaskets look like for each type of Hehr window. You might be able to determine what gaskets you need from their shape:
https://www.vintagetrailergaskets.co...railer-gaskets

The black plastic pieces on the outside of the window frame are standard screw covers:
https://www.vintagetrailergaskets.co...rew-cover.html

The grey piece overhanging the upper edge of the top window is the Top or Sill Seal:
https://www.vintagetrailergaskets.co...e-windows.html

Other than that, I can't see any of the other gaskets in the pictures.

Not much help except to say that my 1973 Ventura windows are identical to yours. and I can't find serial numbers either. If you do have some luck, looking forward to your post. I need to change parts in my cranking mechanisms and don't know what I am looking for yet.

order some samples

Curtis, to you and anyone else trying to find the correct gaskets/seals for your windows, order some samples. Go ahead and contact the supplier and request samples. We were able to order gasket/seal samples from several different companies for free or a small charge, then decide what fits.

windows

I just rebuilt all my windows and used gasket from vintage trailer supply. Took the window completely apart and had to replace a few panes of glass. The only gasket I got locally was the one around the window glass that holds the window in the frame. I could only find a close match and had to pinch the aluminum so that it would grab. They all came out good though. I had some screws break on removal. I just used a die grinder with a cutter disk to cut most of the screw away and pounded out he remaining screw. Worked awsome. I do have pictures and will up load them to my rebuild thread some time this year.
