1995 leak issue
I just bought a 1995 SLT STD Cab Short Bed. Lifted 6' sitting on 35" Toyo M/T, I drove it home the other night in a huge downpour and went out to the truck today and noticed a fairly large wet spot on the passenger side floor. I crawled under it and couldnt find anything wrong... there are no other leaks, it couldnt be the windows or doors I checked.Let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks

RE: 1995 leak issue
Do you have anything mounted to the roof like a visor or cb antenae or after market cab lights .
Those can cause a leak pretty quick.
Also is there a chance it's not water and it's antifreeze .
When the heater core goes out you'll end up w/ a puddle of antifreeze on the floor.
Let us know what u find.

If you're not leaking coolant from the heater core, then definitely check your third brake light. Water gets into it and runs to the passengers side of the floor. I have read several threads about this. Guys simply unscrew the third brake light and apply silicone around it.
Good luck with your ride.

RE: 1995 leak issue
I have a '99 and when I bought it, the A/C's fan housing was cracked and caused water on the floor whenever the A/C was used. Look under the glove compartment area. It's a bit prone to getting kicked and such if it was a work truck. I used some plastic epoxy after roughing the area up w/ sandpaperand has worked for three months now.
Just another idea.

RE: 1995 leak issue
Ok so I havnt driven the car since yesterday. just went out and checked it and it is still pretty wet, more wet than I left it last night. So it cant be coolant or the AC unit. None of the doors or windows is leaking. I need to try the third brake light. any other ideas?
