Not sure what year yours is, but there is a space below your windshield (outside - one on the left and one on the right) by the wipers that have a drain hole. If this area gets clogged up with leaves, dirt, etc it will fill up with water and start to leak into the cab... I've heard/seen this especially on the pre 96's...just a thought

You should have seen it, it was a hail downpour, I bet you that if I walked five feet away from my house and back I would have gotten hit with at least 20 pieces of ice, it was freaking nuts!!!
Ya I was referring to the hail, glad it wasn't bad
I didn't really do anything today but tomorrow I will finish up my exhaust by welding some brackets so it doesn't rattle and I will probably work on my floor pan
