Windshields and water leaks

[crazymoose1990]

Hello people I am here to help if you are having issues with water leaks. I keep hearing about people having issues with this. I will find out where your leak is coming from. I am doing this for free. I will fix all glass with they exception of the front windshiled. Due to the liablity. I will help you pull the front windshield and show you how to install it. I personally will not install it. I will guide you on a proper windshield install. I have worked in the auto glass field for 8 years so I have a little experiance. I know how frustrating this can be and can cause all kinds of other problems once water gets into your electrical system. I cant help if you wont let me. Maybe people want to figure it out for themselves and thats fine. :dunno:

Last time I had a leaky front windshield I just sealed it from the inside with RTV. It worked really really well.

Look at the post above mine. I like that fact that he fixed his leak however using silcone is not recommeded it retains water thats one of the reasons car companys use urethane. :spin1:

Now just add dirt and some bulbs and you can grow flowers.
I will take a look at it Dave. I need to fix my garage door first though. I left my tail gate open when pulling my Jeep out Friday night and hooked the garage door with my rear wiper my garage is now FUBAR !! Cheap ass foam and aluminum doors there a bitch to fix once you have damaged them.

I have some water leaks coming from under my dash on both sides, I don't think it's the windshield though as I had it replaced about a month ago (old one was cracked bad and was leaking at the top driver side corner, new one fixed that leak). Any idea where I should look for water entering the cab? I've read that water can come in from around the heater motor on the passenger side, but what about the driver side? Firewall grommet(s) not sealing anymore I'm guessing?

I wouldnt say that its not the windshield. They may have fixed one leak and caused another. And yes water can come from your heater box. This usually happens when leaves and pine needles fill up your cowl stopping its ablity to drain then in over flows into the heater box then onto the floor. Check the fire wall for holes and all body seams in the roof and the fire wall. If you cant find it after that PM me.
