water in cab

Hi guys
Had some really heavy rain the last few days. The area where the jack is kept in my 90 pick up was full of water. Is it coming from the bed? The landy was parked on a bit of a slope facing down.
Any help would be great.

Main culprits would be seals between cab and bed or the window seals. 90 wolf - Jasmin http://www.defender2.net/forum/topic39408.html

Think I might have a problem............

The drain holes by the seatbelt reels must be blocked or they maybe forgot to fit them at the factory, better get the drill out and retro-fit them

I had a leak in same area coming in from the rear window,due to the channel strip perishing

I used some new double glazing window strip from my neighbour which sorted it out, although it did stop you opening the slide window. I never used it anyway and you couldn't see any difference.

I was told I would have to buy the whole unit when I enquired with Craddocks.

so I patched it with double glazing strip into the window channel.
