Default Ram 2500 Diesel-Water Leak

Anyone that can help.

Have a 1996 Dodge Ram 2500. I have a leak in the cab of my truck. The water is most common at my drivers feet. I have siliconed just about everything I can think of from the marker lights, door step, windshield, back window etc.. I can't seem to find where it's coming from. My rubber mats at the driver aren't wet but to lift them up is soaked so I've ruled out it coming from underneath the dash. Anyone have any help for me or had the same issues? Would really appreciate it before it gets worse.

Thx very much

best thing to do is sit in the truck and have someone run a hose over all the windows and door mouldings, and take a look and see if you can see the water coming in.

It isn't just snow melt coming in on your boots is it? Most water leaks I have seen here resulted in water accumulating on the passenger side floor......

Did you seal up the third brake light? That is a common leak point.
