Water leak from rain

We got some good rain today and I noticed both kick panels have water dripping down. I looked under but cant see where its coming from. Truck was sitting all day. Anyone ever had this before?

Re: Water leak from rain

I've had it from two separate places.

Windshield can leak in the corners or the recirculation flapper door gasket behind that trim panel.

Re: Water leak from rain

Its gotta be the windshield because its on both sides? And I replaced the rubber about 6 years ago with a new one....

Re: Water leak from rain

I'm curious about this too, my truck is leaking in the same spots. I'm thinking the windshield rubber is the culprit?

Re: Water leak from rain

I had put a new rubber in a couple windshields ago and Im due for another one soon so its not like I just changed it and it started. And I cannot see water on the inside of the window? And there is a metal lip on the cab so water should not be able to go over that?
