If you will go to a place that supplies building materials. They will have a round foam spaghetti on rolls. It comes in different colors depending on the size. It is used for filling in voids around windows on houses before you caulk. Find the size that is approx. 5/8" dia. (it should be gray in color), remove the origional rubber and use rubber cement to glue this stuff in the rounded area (don't stuff it down in the groove the old one goes into). Adjust your upper hinges so that the window is pressing equaly all around. Then tighten up the crank (someone pressing lightly on the outside will help). This stuff is very soft and large in O.D. so that it has a better chance of sealing inconsistant spacing between the frame and the body. I put it on mine last year and did not get one drop of water inside the cab all winter. Best of all enough to do your window only costs $2.00. Let me know if you have trouble finding it and I will get the manufacturer and trade name for you.
