Peterbilt passenger door measurement

[Andy D]

I think it's a Peterbilt 389...
Does anyone happen to know
space on the passenger door between
the window and the rivets on the edge of the door?

Off the top of my head, I want to say you've got 23" to work with there, but I could be wrong. From rivets to window seal, probably closer to 22".

That's what I was thinking too, I have measured them on several different occasions,
but I'm not smart enough to record it anywhere.
I should be safe at making their logo 20" wide, wouldn't you think?

I would think so, but I'd hate to be the guy that steered you wrong. Hopefully I'm not far off, or someone else here has that magic number.

Andy, check this out.

IIRC I make that side around 17 to 18 inches wide. Been ages since I lettered a truck.

Seems about right, since the doors are 34" and change.

Last one we did our file was 18.5x8.5

Just did one a while back and we were at 18 inches long in that area. John

Looks to be apx. 20.25in. on this scaled pic of mine...

Done hundreds of them , but it's been a while. There's got to be at least 22 in. there, is my guess

 

[signage]

you guys that said you have done a ton why not check one of the files for the size of what you place their.

 

[strypguy]

I did. At 18in you should have some space on both sides of the design unless you want to run it off the door edge and into the window.

I have this scaled out if you want to send me your email address.

Same here, 18.5 was almost touching the rivets and an inch or less away from the window. I even double checked the picture i had of it before posting to make sure the door was the same.
