I know about the deadening subfloor options, headliners and fixing windshield gaps. That’s been covered in other posts. My question is about the rubber weatherstripping around the door. There is what looks like an additional track not being used on the bottom half of the door. Is there something missing on mine or another rubber weather stripping option for the lower door currently out there? Maybe even secondary aftermarket strips that would fit? What made me think about that is the u shaped metal strip in the lower 1/2 of the doors. It goes all the way around the bottom of the door just outside of the factory rubber strip. See pics

I use my Gladiator as my work vehicle and often take client calls on the road. Just want to get it as good as I can, then deal with it! Thanks.

Looks normal, but try it out on a dirt road if curious. Biggest worry is it you remove the doors and lean them against a wall to not have the doors rest on the seal.
