Check the body plugs under the vehicle and make sure they're not rusted
through or punctured. You can see them by looking under the vehicle - look
for two tabs sticking through an oval hole in the floor. Other areas that
the water can leak through and into that area: Upper A-Pillar (water travels
through the body channel), door-jam seal, or bottom door/body seal.

Subject: DML: YAL (Yet Another Leak)
I got my cab air exhausters sealed up and the water leak there seems to
have stopped.
Now, however, I have water accumulating along the outside of the cab in
the rear of the drivers side (2000 Club Cab). It seems to be pooling up
in that corner. Last time this happened, it turned out to be the leaky
third brake light.
I figured that was the cause again, so I pulled the third brake light
apart and it seems to be completely dry in there. I'm going to seal it
all up again and see what happens, but I'm guessing at this point it
will leak again.
Any other ideas or experiences about what can cause water to accumulate
in this area (along the floor, below where the speaker mounts in the rear).
As far as I know, the passenger's side is dry so far -- same as I saw
originally with the leaky third brake light.
Thanks,
-Bill
